Source: Twitter Australia are currently in commanding position in the fourth Test after they bossed first two days of the match going on at Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad. After choosing to bat first, Usman Khawaja struck a brilliant 180 and Cameron Green scored his maiden Test ton to take Aussies to total of 480 in the first innings. Khawaja displayed great amount of patience and immaculate technique to battle it out against spinners, winning more of these contests than losing. Green, on the other hand, scored at brisk pace and the duo frustrated India for most part of Day 2.
Ashwin grabbed six wickets to complete another five-for. He also became India's highest wicket-taker (113 wickets) in Border-Gavaskar series. At the stumps on Day 2, Rohit Sharma (17) and Shubman Gill (18) were unbeaten with India (36/0 after 10 overs) still trailing by 444 runs. The Indian top order must come good against the Aussie bowling attack to ensure they at least save the Test first.

LIVE India vs Australia, 4th Test, Day 4: Lunch Break
Lunch on Day 4 will consist of India's 73 for 1 after a slow session in Ahmedabad, where only 32 overs were bowled. The Test's recurring theme continued as only one wicket fell in the morning session, with Jadeja losing his patience and holing out to mid-on. The runs have been hard to come by due to disciplined bowling, resulting in a slow run rate. Kohli is just 12 runs away from his 28th Test century, and all eyes will be on him during the post-lunch session. Despite being 118 runs behind, and with only five sessions left, a draw is the most likely outcome.
LIVE India vs Australia, 4th Test, Day 4: Drinks Break
I would say that the initial hour of play has been divided between the teams. Australia would have been thrilled with the gift of Jadeja's wicket. Although there is some turn, it is not insurmountable. Kohli is currently on 70 and will likely aim to remain at the crease for as long as possible. However, India's strategy of playing aggressive cricket may be impeded by Iyer's injury concerns.
LIVE India vs Australia, 4th Test, Day 4: Jadeja Out
Jadeja departs, caught by Khawaja off Murphy's delivery. His lack of patience has cost him as he attempted to hit a tossed up delivery but only succeeded in finding the fielder at mid-on. This was a simple catch for Khawaja. Earlier in the over, Jadeja had attempted a similar shot but had gotten away with it. However, this time he was not so fortunate and has paid the price for his shot selection. Jadeja and the Indian team will be disappointed with this dismissal, as he had scored 28 runs off 84 balls including 2 boundaries and a six. Murphy gets the wicket column with this dismissal.

LIVE India vs Australia, 4th Test, Day 4: Pitch Report
The current pitch conditions show a lot of cloud cover and the cracks on the surface have not yet opened up. Additionally, the lack of rough for Lyon may be due to Starc's usage of round-the-wicket tactics. The best opportunity for making progress will likely come with the new ball. Overall, it seems that the conditions favour batting today.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 4: What happened on Day 3?
On day 3, India scored 253 runs while losing three wickets. Although satisfied with their batting performance, the game would have been more intriguing had they scored at a slightly faster rate. Rohit Sharma fell in the first session to Kuhnemann, caught at covers. However, Pujara and Gill's crucial 113-run partnership for the second wicket helped India steady the innings. Gill achieved his century in the post-lunch session, but Pujara was dismissed lbw by Murphy in the same over. Gill and Kohli then contributed well, but Gill's concentration waned due to cramps, and he was eventually dismissed lbw by Nathan Lyon. Despite this setback, Kohli and Jadeja survived the second new ball, which was taken towards the end of day 3. India is still 191 runs behind, and the hosts will aim to score quickly on day 4.

LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Shubman Gill after century vs AUS
It feels great to score a hundred here. This is my IPL home ground and glad to get some runs here. The pitch was pretty good to bat on. Anything happening off the pitch was off the rough area. I was looking to pick singles whenever possible. Honestly, I was still trying to be positive and was keep looking for singles. They weren't attacking that much. We are three down for almost 300. We would look to get a big score on day 4. Who knows the wicket might help our bowlers on day 5.

LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Pujara Departs
It's Murphy bowling to Pujara, and he's been given out Lbw! This decision looks very tight! However, Pujara has taken the review. Is there an inside edge? Murphy has bowled a flighted delivery from around the wicket, which dips on a length and turns in from the middle. UltraEdge shows a flat line as Pujara tried to defend the ball but was beaten on the inside edge. The ball hits his front pad low and is projected to crash into the middle and leg stump. Murphy has taken a crucial wicket for Australia just before tea. The ball turned slightly off the straight, which proved enough to beat Pujara's forward defensive stroke. Pujara is dismissed Lbw by Murphy for 42 runs (121 balls, including three boundaries).
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: 100 for Gill

Murphy's length ball down the leg side provided Gill with a fortunate opportunity to reach this milestone. Gill skillfully got down on one knee and elegantly swept the ball away to the fine leg boundary for a four.

LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Gill near 100
After their lunch break, the players have returned to the pitch. Lyon has taken up the attack, and it will be Gill who will face the first ball of the session.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Lunch Break
Early in the day, Starc attempted to use the short ball strategy, but the Indian openers aggressively attacked him, resulting in Smith having to remove him from the attack. Lyon bowled skillfully, but it was Kuhnemann who ultimately made the breakthrough by dismissing Rohit, who was batting well, with a chip to short cover. After that, few opportunities were created. Shubman Gill scored a half-century, and Pujara displayed excellent footwork against spin. Murphy delivered an outstanding ball that narrowly missed the inside edge of the half-centurion's bat and bounced over the stumps. This was the closest Australia came to taking a wicket in the second hour. India had a successful session, but they still trail by 351 runs. Will they be able to continue grinding out runs against the Australians, or will the visitors come up with a new strategy?
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Fifty for Gill
With an incredible display of timing, Gill reached his fifty in just 90 balls aided by a glorious on-the-up cover drive. The stroke was superb.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Rohit Sharma Departs
Rohit is caught by Labuschagne off Kuhnemann's delivery. It's a rather easy dismissal, and Rohit expresses his frustration by hitting his bat on his pad as he walks away. The ball was dropped short and just outside the off-stump, and Rohit was preparing for a back-foot punch. Although the shot seemed to be on, the ball appeared to slow down a bit, causing Rohit to follow through with the shot and finding Labuschagne at short cover-point. This wicket may have come as a surprise, but Australia will be pleased with the result. Rohit is out for 35 runs off 58 balls, including 3 fours and 1 six. Kuhnemann gets the credit for the wicket.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: AUS lose review
Gill managed to survive despite an LBW appeal. He got forward to defend, but the ball hit his pad before striking his bat. Fortunately for him, the umpire rejected the appeal, and he was saved by the 3-meter rule.

LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Hayden compares Khawaja With Waugh
"Usman Khawaja should be in that 100 Test match category. He's played 59 Test matches, I reckon that he is 40 short of what it should have been, and that is due to his underwhelming body language. He is similar to someone like Mark Waugh. He was so stylish that the word soft' was invented. He was so sharp and good, just like Khawaja," said Hayden.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Can India batters deliver?
India remain unscathed despite being forced to endure the impact of 480 runs. They concluded day 2 with a score of 36, with Rohit and Gill appearing unfazed as the pitch continued to favor the batsmen. Earlier in the day, Khawaja accumulated 180 runs and Green notched a century, securing Australia's dominant position. Ashwin attempted to slow down the scoring, but his six wickets only alleviated a portion of the damage. Even Lyon and Murphy, the penultimate batting pair, displayed great determination on this benign pitch. However, Ashwin ultimately wrapped up the innings. India faces a daunting task heading into day 3.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: Cameron Green After Maiden Test Ton
Probably not yet. You never know when it would happen. But very grateful. Uzzy helped me a lot. Was really special to have him at the other end. We get to go to MRF tours as young Australia players. May be we just have a great group of players in the change room. I think this is a different style of batting. In Australia you try to get more in line with it. Head is very aggressive with the new ball. I thought may be had a good chance to score runs with the new ball yesterday. I just tried to pick up how the Indian bowlers went about it. You have to swallow your ego on this wicket. I will may be do the holding role tomorrow and let the spinners do their bit.
LIVE India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3: What to Expect on Day 3?
So far in the series, the Indian top-order's performance has been unremarkable. However, they now have a valuable opportunity to rectify this, as the wicket remains conducive for batting. While Australia currently holds the advantage, the leadership of Smudge will be put to the test as he adopts a proactive approach.

India vs Australia 4th Test Day 3 score and updates: How should India attack on Day 3?
Captain Rohit Sharma should look to stitch up at least 150 runs for the first wicket along side Shubman Gill if they want to put pressure back on Australia. In the worse case scenario, India can look out to draw this Test with the series in their hand with a 2-1 lead at the moment.

India vs Australia LIVE Updates: What a knock by Khawaja
Usman Khawaja was trolled when he missed the flight to Australia for visa reasons. He reached a day later and had poor outings in the first Test. Many believed Australians had overhyped him just because he played superbly in Pakistan last yera. But Khawaja answered back his critics with a brilliant knock of 180, showing his grit, determination and skills to the world. That knock has set up Australia nicely in the series.
