INDIA-AUSTRALIA CRICKET : Day Four, Third Test at Perth 
India carve out amazing win at Perth
It was a remarkable show of character by the Indians who did not allow the acrimonious events of the Sydney Test to affect them as they went about plotting the demolition of the champion team. The last time India defeated Australia in a Test was in Mumbai in 2004 when they had beaten them by 13 runs.  SCORE-BOARD
One of the best wins of my career: Kumble
"After Sydney there were two options. One was to go back home, the other was to show that we are capable of winning. I am glad the team has got together to prove that we can beat Australia," Kumble said.
Kumble, Prasad see Srinath's shadow in Ishant
The rookie speedster twice removed Australian captain Ricky Ponting to earn crucial breakthroughs for his team, prompting Kumble to liken him to India's retired pace spearhead Srinath.

LEFT: India's march to victory was stalled by an entertaining ninth wicket stand between Mitchell Johnson and Stuart Clark. The two paceman decided to chance their arm and the tactic paid off as they piled on 73 runs in 55 minutes. Their partnership ended when Clark was caught behind for 32.

Irfan can be an outstanding all-rounder:  Waugh
Impressed by his application, Waugh said, "Irfan Pathan has the potential to become an outstanding Test match all-rounder. "The poise he showed to bat throughout the first session yesterday confirmed this," Waugh wrote in his column for 'The Daily Telegraph'.
Irfan Pathan...MAN OF THE MATCH
Australia fined for slow over-rate
Ponting was fined 20 per cent of his match fee while each of his players has been docked 10 per cent of their earnings. Match referee Mike Procter imposed the fine after the hosts were ruled to be two overs short of their target.
