Bumrah leads India to biggest Test win on Australian soil
Feisty India lord over Perth

Jasprit Bumrah led a feisty bunch of Indian cricketers to their most dominant Test victory on Australian soil, winning by a massive 295 runs in a remarkable turnaround that will find a pride of place among the country's golden moments in international cricket.

The stand-in skipper led by example with a match-haul of 8/72 as India bowled out the hosts, who were in pursuit of a mammoth 534, for 238 in 58.4 overs on the fourth afternoon of the opening Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy here.

The victory propelled India back to the top of the World Test Championship standings with 61.11 percentage points.

India's previous biggest winning margin in terms of runs was 222 during a 1978 game in Sydney when Australia played an under-strength side due to mass exodus for the Kerry Packer World Series.

A promising premise undone by predictable execution

The title Divorce Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega suggests a tantalizing premise-something noirish, audacious, or at least unconventional. Instead, the seven-episode series delivers a tepid rom-com that never quite fulfills its potential. For a show ostensibly about daring escapades and marital mishaps, it's puzzlingly timid, meandering into a predictable love story that feels more stale than sensational.
