Australian top-order batter Marnus Labuschagne was involved in a hilarious incident as he was caught sleeping before going into bat during WTC Final against India. After bundling out the Men in Blue for 296, the Aussies came into bat with a lead of 173.
But like the first innings, Australia was dealt with an early blow as David Warner was dismissed at the score of one in eight balls. But just before the wicket ball, the camera at the Aussie dressing room where Labuschagne was seen napping where his full kit. Hence just as Warner got out, the number three batter - Labuschagne woke up with a jolt and ran into the middle.

Despite this mishap, Marnus managed to bat well and stay not out at the end of Day 3 at a score of 41 in 118 balls. But on the other end, the Indians managed to dismiss Steven Smith and Travis Head courtesy of Ravindra Jadeja.
Speaking about what Team India needs to do tomorrow take advantage of the first session. He said, "Australia is slightly ahead in the game. For us, it's important to be in the moment, play session by session. First one hour will be crucial tomorrow. We know funny things can happen. Jadeja bowled really well, footmarks helped him against the left-hander. Still feel wicket will help seam bowlers."
