Ben Hilfenhaus claimed three wickets in an over as Australia completed an emphatic innings and 37-run victory over India in the third Test at Perth.

The seamer dismissed Vinay Kumar, Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma in five balls as Australia took an unassailable 3-0 lead in the four-match series.

Virat Kohli, who batted through the morning session to keep the hosts' victory push at bay, was last out.

Quote:
On David Warner, who hit the equal-fourth fastest Test century on the opening day to help put Australia in a commanding position, Clarke even compared him to former Australia wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist.

"It's like opening the batting with Gilly," said Clarke. "He can hit it both sides.

"I love his enthusiasm. He's a great asset for Australia and he has a bright future."

England bowler Stuart Broad suffered "heavy bruising" after hitting a ball into his foot in the nets on Sunday.

Broad, 25, was given treatment to his left foot but was not sent for a scan and is expected to train on Monday.

He said on Twitter: "Afternoon with my foot up being iced. Jimmy [Anderson] got me with an in swinging yorker. Bowling tomorrow so no worries."
