third—placed dundee united were beaten 1—0 by hearts.ionship, beating ten—man portsmouth 1—0 to end the weekend fourth, three points off leaders leeds. wilson isidor�*s eighth goal of the season after seven minutes was the difference at the stadium of light, where the black cats remain unbeaten this season. it's a fourth consecutive away defeat for portsmouth, who only stay above hull, out of the relegation zone, on goals scored. given the competitive nature and recent successes of the two teams, it's strange to think that australia ended a period of india dominance in test series between them. the border/gavaskar trophy has been elusive for a decade, but their six wicket win in the final test in sydney saw them take the series 3—1, as dan 0gunshakin reports. sunny skies in sydney as india look to push on and australia were hoping for a sprint to the finish line, india's prospects of setting a challenging total rested on the bat. australia would want to get him out cheaply. 0ne down, three to go, pat cummings intent on wrapping things up
