The Indian cricket team had a big reason to celebrate during the third Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test match. After being in a tough spot, India avoided the follow-on against Australia’s massive first-innings total of 445 runs.
The moment came when Akash Deep and Jasprit Bumrah, the last pair, stood strong for India. Akash Deep’s powerful shot against Pat Cummins ensured that India crossed the 246-run mark. The Indian dressing room, including Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and head coach Gautam Gambhir, erupted in celebration. Everyone was seen jumping, exchanging high-fives, and cheering loudly. Even Akash Deep celebrated by beating his chest after the special moment.

The excitement didn’t stop there. Just one ball later, Akash Deep smashed a huge six against Pat Cummins. Virat Kohli’s reaction to the shot was priceless—he stood stunned and could not believe what he saw. Behind him, Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir also looked equally amazed. The whole stadium joined the celebrations, making it a memorable moment.

Earlier in the day, India was under pressure despite good performances from KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja. Rahul survived a close call on the first ball of Day 4 and went on to score 84 runs. Jadeja also played an important knock of 77 runs. However, after Jadeja’s dismissal, India still needed 33 runs to avoid the follow-on.
Akash Deep and Bumrah Save India
With only one wicket left, Akash Deep and Jasprit Bumrah stepped up when it mattered most. The two players added a 39-run partnership, taking India to safety. Deep played a brave knock of 27 runs, while Bumrah supported him with 10 runs.
Their efforts ensured India avoided the follow-on, and the umpires called for early stumps due to bad light. Both batters were unbeaten, and the team ended the day with a big sigh of relief.
