17 December 2020, 16:53 PM
Saha, Ashwin look to play through to end of day. Undoubtedly, it's been Australia who have won the final hour though as we come to the final few overs in the day. India have scored 105 runs for the loss of 3 wickets in the 30 overs in this session so far. Cummins is back into the attack.
17 December 2020, 16:52 PM
India 215/6 after 89 overs; Ravichandran Ashwin 7(9), Wriddhiman Saha (W) 2(7).
17 December 2020, 16:49 PM
Ravichandran Ashwin has looked to take on the Australian bowlers, rather than adopting a defensive approach, as evident from his drive off the front foot, which ran away past backward point. Ashwin has scored seven runs off his opening nine deliveries, which is a good sign.
17 December 2020, 16:48 PM
IND are 212 for 6 off 85.1 overs.

Another LBW! Josh Hazlewood joins in the fun as Vihari departs. India suddenly six down #AUSvIND

Wriddhiman Saha has come in to join Vihari. Vihari flashes a four to third man to get India up to 200 in the 82nd over. Lots of movement on offer for both Starc and Hazlewood with the new ball under lights. And there's another wicket for Australia! Hazlewood raps Vihari on the pads and the umpire raises his finger again. India are capitulating in the final session.
17 December 2020, 16:39 PM
OUT! Hanuma Vihari lbw b Hazlewood 16(25).
17 December 2020, 16:38 PM

Pujara c Labuschagne b Lyon 43
End of over 50: India 100/3
17 December 2020, 12:36 PM
After 30 overs, India 51/2; Cheteshwar Pujara 21 , Virat Kohli (C) 11. Pujara has had ample time at the middle, defending and leaving Aussie bowlers' attack wisely. Pujara has made 21* off 102 so far which is so frustrating for the bowling attack. On the other hand, Virat Kohli is also trying to get set before ticking the scoreboard further. Both have stitched an 11-run stand in 64 balls.
17 December 2020, 12:34 PM
After the first session, Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara are trying to rebuild following shocking dismissals of Mayank Agarwal and Prithvi Shaw on the opening day of the first day/night Test on overseas soil against Australia.

17 December 2020, 12:28 PM
After 28 overs, India 42/2 (Cheteshwar Pujara 18 ,Virat Kohli (C) 5); Hazlewood starts off with a back of a length delivery to Pujara and then bowls a bouncer. The third ball slides down the leg, Pujara flicks and takes a single. Hazlewood to Kohli, pitched up delivery, the Indian captain blocks it. The next one is also full, this one is on the pads, Kohli tries to beat the mid-on fielder but fails. Just one off the over.
17 December 2020, 12:09 PM
Match resumes after the dinner break, Kohli and Pujara to are fighting hard as Australia tighten grip on the match.
17 December 2020, 12:05 PM
Super contest in the first session of the series, an enthralled crowd and an excellent pitch. Over rate the only thing to take issue with #AusvInd
