Indian National Cricket Team pacer Akash Deep brought his team back into the game in the ongoing Test against the Australian National Cricket Team. The third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 is being held at the Gabba in Brisbane.
After Ravindra Jadeja's exit, it was also certain that the Australian National Cricket Team would combine the Indian National Cricket Team before the further result. However, Akash Deep had other plans as he joined Jasprit Bumrah and piled the pressure back on the Pat Cummins-led side.
Akash Deep has put in a brilliant effort with the bat, showing great courage and resilience to help India avoid the follow-on
Akash Deep produced a brilliant effort with the bat as he showed great courage and resilience. The fast bowler, along with Jasprit Bumrah, showed great maturity and slowly knocked on the scoreboard. He then made sure to help the Indian national cricket team avoid a follow-on in the third Test.
As the Indian national cricket team avoided the follow-on, Akash Deep rubbed salt in the wounds of the Australian national cricket team. The fast bowler came up with a stunning six against skipper Pat Cummins that made the entire Indian dressing room stand up and applaud him.
Pat Cummins bowled a full ball on the off-stump, to which Akash came up with a massive shot. He sent the ball over deep mid-wicket with a clean shot for a massive six and made the skipper of the Australian national cricket team look out of his mind.
This left Virat Kohli absolutely amazed in the dressing room along with head coach Gautam Gambhir and other members of the Indian team. They seemed delighted with the huge six pack as the video went viral on the internet.

Akash Deep plays an unbeaten innings of 27 runs off 31 balls, adds 39 runs in partnership with Jasprit Bumrah
Akash played an unbeaten innings of 27 runs off 31 balls. Along with one massive six, he also hit two boundaries. He, along with Jasprit Bumrah, who is unbeaten on 10, added a 39-run partnership to take the Indian cricket team past 250 runs.
Thanks to a brilliant effort with the bat, the Indian cricket team most likely saved the match, which seemed to be going Australia's way. The game seems to be heading for a draw now, and that will be a huge confidence boost for the team going into the final two games.
Earlier in the day, KL Rahul (84) and Ravindra Jadeja (77) played vital knocks for the team and kept them in the hunt despite wickets falling at regular intervals. The duo combined for over 50 runs and put Australia under pressure.
