Umesh Yadav was also pivotal for India in the first innings, where his quick-fire 17 off 13 helped India post a triple-digit score. The tailender smacked two maximums off spinner Matthew Kuhnemann to equal Virat Kohli’s record of 24 maximums in Test cricket. The lanky pacer also went past former India coach Ravi Shastri’s record of 22 sixes to occupy the 17th spot of the list of Indian cricketers with most sixes in Tests.
Umesh Yadav now has 101 test wkts at home.

14 pace bowlers have taken 100+ wkts at home since his debut ( Nov 2011 )
Umesh is the only bowler from Asia !!
He has the 5th best SR ( 46.1)
This is some achievement.
In the first innings, India were bowled out for a paltry 109 runs due to Matthew Kuhnemann and Nathan Lyon’s eight wickets combined. The Indian batters could not stand against the Australian spin attack and faltered from the word go in the third Border-Gavaskar Test. When it was time for India to bowl, all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja led the proceedings with a four-wicket haul. The southpaw scalped the wickets of captain Steve Smith, Usman Khwaja, Marnus Labuschagne and Travis Head. On the second day, Ashwin and Yadav scythed through the remaining Australian batting line-up to ensure that the visitors could only get a lead of 88 runs.
