Australia's un-Australian methods pay off

Australia aren't quite equipped to save Tests in Asia, but Shaun Marsh and Peter Handscomb pulled off an improbable result in Ranchi

20-Mar-2017•Jarrod Kimber in Ranchi

The longest form: Ranchi showed Test cricket at its gruelling best

Cheteshwar Pujara, Steve O'Keefe and Ravindra Jadeja were just three of the players who had marathon roles in Ranchi

Plot watch - The Maxwell agenda

Play ended in Ranchi with the pitch not quite living up to its promise to be a minefield

20-Mar-2017•ESPNcricinfo staff

The Ranchi daymare

What an Australian fielder might have experienced on day four, watching Cheteshwar Pujara go on and on and on. And then, those hellish eight overs to stumps...

19-Mar-2017•Jarrod Kimber in Ranchi

Plot watch - Jadeja's rough

Dark patches outside the left-handers' off stump caused Australia some concern, but the rest of the Ranchi pitch continued to play well

19-Mar-2017•ESPNcricinfo staff

Pujara plays India's longest innings

Stats highlights from the fourth day in Ranchi, where Cheteshwar Pujara batted for ages and the Australians toiled like they haven't had to in many years

19-Mar-2017•Bharath Seervi

Pujara swears by his survival guide

The forays down the pitch and the leaves outside off stump revealed a largely unchanged batting formula that has brought Cheteshwar Pujara rich rewards

18-Mar-2017•Karthik Krishnaswamy in Ranchi

The Pujara v Cummins battle

Pat Cummins was outstanding on the third day in Ranchi, but he couldn't find a way past Cheteshwar Pujara

18-Mar-2017•S Rajesh and Bharath Seervi

Patience makes Pujara the batsman

With his impeccable defensive technique, Cheteshwar Pujara is never flustered when the runs don't come as easily

18-Mar-2017•Aakash Chopra

Plot watch - The shoulder-clutch that never happened

The DRS was once again in the spotlight on the third day in Ranchi, after TV umpire Nigel Llong upheld the not-out decision for an lbw appeal against Cheteshwar Pujara

18-Mar-2017•ESPNcricinfo staff

Jadeja no longer playing second fiddle

The allrounder's return of 5 for 124 on a placid Ranchi pitch meant he went past R Ashwin's tally of first-innings wicket this season

17-Mar-2017•Karthik Krishnaswamy in Ranchi

Emotional Maxwell scales his peak at last

Glenn Maxwell's Test career seemed dead in the water after a long spell in the wilderness. But he never gave up hope of making the grade, and now has his coveted maiden century

17-Mar-2017•Melinda Farrell in Ranchi

Australia's battle of patience

Despite Steven Smith's remarkable ton, despite Glenn Maxwell's barely believable knock, despite having 451 on the board, it seems the Ranchi Test is still in the balance for Australia

Captain Smith racks up the numbers in India

Stats highlights from Australia's first innings of the Ranchi Test

17-Mar-2017•Bharath Seervi

The weirdness of Maxwell's proper Test innings

On a pitch most suited for him on this tour, David Warner, the T20-specialist-turned-Test star, got his eye in and then played a wasteful shot. The grown-up knock came from another T20 specialist, instead: Glenn Maxwell

16-Mar-2017•Jarrod Kimber in Ranchi

Plot watch - Ranchi pitch belies expectations

A daily report on the three biggest talking points of the series: the pitches, the on-field aggression and the reviews

16-Mar-2017•ESPNcricinfo staff

Smith's runs trump aesthetics

Steven Smith is a classic example of the essentials of batting at the crease and the fact that some may find his game seemingly unaesthetic takes nothing away from its effectiveness

16-Mar-2017•Aakash Chopra

The long break and the premiership quarter

Australia's tour of India has been a bit like an AFL game and they go into the third Test knowing a victory could help them retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy

15-Mar-2017•Melinda Farrell in Ranchi

Starc injury renews focus on front-foot law

Is it time to revisit the front-foot no-ball law and the extra stress it puts on fast bowlers' bodies? There is some evidence to suggest as much
