Well done, India!

Congratulations to India on winning the third Test of the current series against Australia at the WACA by 72 runs. Especially as no overseas team, barring legendary Caribbean sides, has won in Perth since 1985-86.

Given what happened in Sydney a fortnight ago, India's convincing victory will surely go down as one of their finest Test wins.
An entertaining ninth-wicket partnership between Mitchell Johnson and Stuart Clark gave a 16,000-strong crowd plenty of merriment, but it proved to have only nuisance value, as India ended Australia's stunning 16-match winning streak.

This shows that - after coming out of the quagmire of controversy off the field - the greatest game in the world is still capable of producing great and fair sport with brilliant results.

As Australia won the first two Tests in Melbourne and Sidney, India still needs to win the fourth, which starts on the 24th in Adelaide, to square the series. I hope they will and wish them luck.

IND: 1st innings: 330 (98.2 overs) / 2nd innings: 294 (80.4 overs)
AUS: 1st innings: 212 (50.0 overs) / 2nd innings: 340 (86.5 overs)
