Australia Wins Test Series Against India

Australian selectors are likely to retain Mitch Marsh for the fifth Test against India despite his poor form, averaging just 10.42 with the bat and having bowled only 16 wicketless overs in recent matches. Coach Andrew McDonald defended Marsh, attributing his limited bowling to tactical decisions rather than injury concerns, while acknowledging that Marsh's performance has not met expectations. Meanwhile, 19-year-old Sam Konstas made headlines for his bold approach against Jasprit Bumrah, scoring 60 runs in his Test debut and helping Australia secure a 2-1 lead in the series. David Warner praised Konstas but questioned why a debutant had to lead the charge against a top bowler, suggesting that more experienced players should step up. Bumrah remains a significant threat as Australia aims to secure a series win, needing just one more match. The series has highlighted issues within the Australian batting lineup, prompting discussions about potential changes moving forward.
