Aus v Ind 3rd Test Day 5: India stage the great escape, snatch a draw
India battled brilliantly to snatch a draw on the final day of the third Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy on Monday.
Resuming at their overnight score of 98 for two, India finished on 334 for five in 131 overs to earn a honourable draw in the third Test. The series is now level at 1-1, with one Test to go at Brisbane.
