Australia enjoy a wonderful morning session on day three in Bangalore, starting off with Brett Lee's removal of Gautam Gambhir Mitchell Johnson then picks up three massive wickets, including Virender Sehwag, who adds just two to his overnight 43 Johnson's second wicket, in which Sachin Tendulkar is caught at point for 13, silences the expectant Banglore crowd The wicket of VVS Laxman, prised out by Johnson for a duck, brings Sourav Ganguly to the crease in his final Bangalore Test Rahul Dravid, attempting to hold together the middle order, hits a battling half-century on his home ground But when Shane Watson wins a slightly fortunate lbw decision soon after lunch, Dravid has to go and India hit trouble at 155-5 Michael Clarke, who seems to enjoy bowling against India, picks up another key wicket, bowling Mahendra Dhoni Dhoni looks back in horror as his off-stump is dislodged by a ball from Clarke that spins after pitching on middle Johnson strikes another mortal blow, winning an lbw verdict off umpire Asad Rauf and India's total is a worrying 232-7 But an 80-run stand between Harbhajan Singh and Zaheer Khan gives India a chance as they close on 313-8, 117 runs behind
