Fans were hoping for an action-packed third day in the third Test between India and Australia in Indore. Australia were looking to win the match by chasing down the target of 76 runs. While team India were looking for a miracle to continue their winning momentum. However, all Indian batters like Shreyas Iyer, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma had a terrible game with the bat in both innings.

However, the Men in Blue had a good start to the day as Ravichandran Ashwin picked up the wicket of Usman Khawaja in the very first over. Shreyas Iyer was fielding at the short-leg position while the spinners were bowling. There, he was seen sledging to Travis Head by saying: ‘Ek leg Chandigarh mein aur ek leg Haryana mein’. It seemed that Iyer was trying to say that Head’s one leg was in Chandigarh and another leg was in Haryana.
