India vs Australia 2017: All you need to know about the third Test in Ranchi

#2 Steven Smith 5000, Murali Vijay 50

Smith is closing in on the 5000-run mark

Here are a few key statistics surrounding the game.

Smith needs 76 more runs to become the 20^th Australian batsman to complete 5000 Test runs. If he does get to the landmark in Ranchi, his average will be the second highest in the 5000-run club (across all nationalities) after Sir Don Bradman.

Vijay is set to become the 29^th cricketer and 5^th regular opener to play 50 Tests for India.

The JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi will be the 26^th venue to host Test cricket in India.

Jadeja requires 66 more runs to become the 10^th Indian all-rounder to complete the double of 1000 runs and 100 wickets.

If India go in with only one fast bowler, it will be their first such instance since the 2015 Nagpur Test against South Africa.
