After batting creditably for most part of their first innings, India handed over the advantage to Australia by poor batting show on fourth day morning. Once the Rohit Sharma-Wriddhiman Saha stand was broken at 399, the rest of the flame blew out for the addition of just 45 runs. Of these, Mohammad Shami contributed 34 off 24 balls in cavalier fashion. Shami’s unusually belligerent show avoided an earlier rout for India and delayed the start for Australia’s second innings. But such small consolation did not stop the Australian batting machine because, coming back again, they simply repeated their first innings’ performance by scoring briskly and putting on 290/4, when stumps were drawn. David Warner followed up his first-innings century with one more and Steven Smith remained not out on 52. Yet again, India’s bowlers failed to impress with the exception of debutant Karn Sharma. Now it will be a daunting task for Virat Kohli
