In the second innings, Kohli once again looked in fine form but was dismissed for 20 runs. India was in big trouble at 137-7 in the first innings, but a stunning century partnership with Axar Patel and Ravichandran Ashwin put India back on track. Earlier, Australia took a one-run lead, but Indian spinners destroyed the Australian unit with a stunning display that saw them take nine wickets in the morning session of Day 3. Ravindra Jadeja took a seven-wicket haul, which ensured that Australia made just 113 runs.

India's victory against Australia was impressive, but Kohli's controversial dismissal was a topic of discussion in the cricket world. The incident demonstrated the importance of accurate decision-making in cricket matches, and it highlighted the challenges faced by umpires in making difficult calls in high-pressure situations. Despite the controversy, Kohli's contribution to the team's victory was significant, and his performance in the upcoming matches could be crucial to India's success in the series.
