Cheteshwar Pujara's magnificent 193 laid the base for India's domination but it was Rishabh Pant's blitz in the fag end of day 2 that totally decimated Australia. Pant became the first Indian keeper in history to hit a century in Australia and his 204-run partnership with Ravindra Jadeja helped India declare on 622/7, their second-highest score in Tests in Australia. India will be aiming to get quick wickets on day 3 and build a healthy lead as they look to seal a fantastic series win in Australia and in the process, create history. On the other hand, Australia face a massive task in trying to save this match. A win is all but ruled out for Tim Paine's side but it will require a herculean effort to level the series. (SCORECARD)
