Australia vs India Third Test: Rahul Dravid Gets His Form Back with Classy 93

The third of Australian vs India test series has been started yesterday with India batting first after winning the toss. India got off to a good start from the two openers. Then Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid guided India to 297 for 6 at stumps. Rahul Dravid has finally played an excellent innings following a tough time with bat in the first two tests. He had half century in the second test; however, Dravid appeared with his classy shots yesterday.

Rahul Dravid came to bat at the 17th over when India was on 57 for 1. After getting back his favorite no. 3 position, he played an excellent innings of 93 off 183 balls, hitting 14 boundaries. The batsman played with ease and never looked nervous throughout his innings. However, the way he fell was not classy at all. He feel short of just 7 runs from another superb century.

Rahul Dravid was instrumental in India’s last tour to Australian, which ended with a 1-1 draw. Now, India, 2-0 down in the series, needs similar performance from Rahul Dravid in order to save the series, winning last two tests.

Do you think, Rahul Dravid will repeat his impressive performance once again in Australia?
