India comeplete a 75-run win against Australia in the second Test in Bangalore to level the four match series 1-1. Chasing a target of 187 in the fourth innings, Australia were bowled out for 112 runs with Ashwin taking 6 wickets for 41 runs. Earlier, Pujara scored 92 and Rahane scored 51 to help India post a competitive total
India’s premier bowler R Ashiwn was the hero of the day as he picked six wickets to dismantle the Australian batting line-up; the off-spinner was well supported by other bowlers. This was Ashwin’s 25th five-wicket haul and his 200th wicket on Indian soil.
Here is how Twitter reacted to the day’s play:

Steve Smith, don't talk to the dressing room, just walk to the dressing room & tell your story walking. That was OUT. #IndvAus

Massive wicket. Interesting that Smith tried to ask dressing room for help with referral. Some might call it cheating #INDvAUS

100 runs lead for India, as precious as having a 100 rupees note at the time of demonetization. #IndvAus #INDvsAUS
