IND vs AUS third Check: KL Rahul slams high-quality fifty as Ravindra Jadeja appears to carry fort for India
IND vs AUS 3rd Test, Day 4 LIVE: As expected, the Indian team started the day 4 poorly, after Rohit Sharma edged one from Pat Cummins. That meant the team was reduced to 74/5. This after KL Rahul got a reprieve on the first ball of the day. But then, after that Rahul stayed strong and crossed the 50-run mark to take India to 100/5. But soon after, rain struck with India at 105/5.

Day 2 of action has begun at the Gabba with clear skies. Hope rain doesn’t play spoilsport today. After a lovely setup, Jasprit Bumrah dispatches Usman Khawaja very early. Next was Nathan McSweeney, who is now officially his bunny, getting out for the 4th consecutive time. Nitish Reddy then cleverly dispatched Marnus Labuschagne.
IN a short burst of 13 overs, Gabba witnessed rain twice. First was after 5.3 overs and the next one came after 13.2 overs. Australia did well to be 28/0 at the rain break. Eventually, early lunch was taken. In fact, such was the situation that the post-lunch session was also delayed before we had stumps.
