Elite athleticism?
Cricket Australia want to rebuild their side and culture…build it around Pat Cummins. Skill, heart, commitment and humility. This guy is a once a generation cricketer and we almost never saw him again. #InPatWeTrust #AUSvIND #7cricket #FoxCricket

Pitches the ball at the same spot too many times to be three-sixty.
Bumrah is the bowling equivalent of the 360 degrees batsman. #AUDvIND #MatchDay

More adulation for brilliant Bumrah.
What an outstanding bowling effort from India and a really special effort from Jasprit Bumrah. He has been the best bowler on display across both sides by some distance and has put India in a really dominating position #AusvInd pic.twitter.com/sP3A05b4Ti

Vaughan cheekily evokes his inner Englishman.
The only thing that can save the Aussies in Melbourne is rain … they have no chance chasing down the Indian target if the declared now … !! What a great series this has been … 👍

Perhaps Bradman in 1936 Melbourne was not wrong after all.
Australia's collective batting averages in this series:
Nos.1-5: 24.44
Nos.6-10: 25.52#AUSvIND— Brydon Coverdale (@brydoncoverdale) December 28, 2018
Was India’s collapse a plan after all?
At the end of Australia’s innings India’s WinViz was 73% & Australia’s was 1%. At the close of play India’s WinViz is 84% & Australia’s is 3%. With some rain forecast on day four & five India’s top order collapse has given Australia faint home but torpedoed the draw. #AUSvIND
