Jasprit Bumrah to Mitchell Starc, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Jasprit Bumrah gets the better of Starc and picks his sixth! The first one of the day for India and they will be hoping it brings a couple more quickly! On a good length, from wider on the crease, angling in, and shaping away just a touch.

Mohammed Siraj to Nathan Lyon, OUT! CLEANED'EM UP! Mohammed Siraj goes through the defences of Lyon!

Australia are now 445/9.

Mitchell Starc to Yashasvi Jaiswal, OUT! TAKEN! Mitchell Starc gets Jaiswal again! A soft dismissal. Starc dishes out a full delivery, on middle and leg, Yashasvi Jaiswal's eyes light up as he gets this one on the pads. Fails to keep the shot along the ground as he flicks. It goes straight to Mitchell Marsh who is standing at a position which is neither square leg nor mid-wicket and he is in really tight in front of square on the leg side. Marsh snaffles it with ease around his face.

Nathan Lyon to KL Rahul, OUT! WHAT A CATCH! Steven Smith has redeemed himself and how! After dropping Rahul on the first ball of the day, he has now pulled off an absolutely spectacular grab to dismiss him. Lyon drops it flat and short, around off, Rahul goes deep in the crease and shapes up for the cut. He fails to get on top of the bounce and the ball catches the outside edge of the angled bat. It goes low to the right of first slip where Steven Smith anticipates well by taking a couple of steps to his right and flings himself. The ball sticks in his grasp and stays in even as his elbow hits the turf. Smith lets out a roar. The change of ends has done the trick for Lyon. KL Rahul departs after a gritty 84-run knock and India are now 141/6 needing another 105 runs to avoid the follow-on! 

Mitchell Starc to Shubman Gill, OUT! WHAT A GRAB! Mitchell Marsh is off on a celebratory run! Starc lands it full and outside off, Shubman Gill is lured into the drive and goes at it with hard hands. It flies quickly off the outside edge and goes to the left of gully where Mitchell Marsh leaps across to his left and makes a tough catch look easy. Just 13 balls in the innings and India are in trouble losing two quick wickets for just 6 runs! 

Josh Hazlewood to Virat Kohli, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Josh Hazlewood gets in on the act now! It's that line outside off which has led to Kohli's downfall once again. Josh pitches it up and serves it in that teasing line outside the off-stump, Kohli goes chasing the delivery instead of the safer option of leaving it alone. The outside edge is found and the keeper Alex Carey gobbles it with ease around his waist. The Australians get around Starc to applaud him for his effort on the previous ball which brought Kohli on strike. India are in all sorts of trouble. They are 22/3, trailing by 423 runs.

Pat Cummins to Rishabh Pant, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Pat Cummins strikes in the first over after the resumption! Cummins dismisses Pant for the third time in the series. Stays over the wicket for the left-hander and gets the ball to leave the batter, on a length, on off, Pant is drawn forward and he tries to defend it by keeping his bat close to the front pad. There is just enough movement that results in the ball grazing the outside edge and the keeper Alex Carey does the rest. India in further strife.

Pat Cummins to Rohit Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Pat Cummins kept things so tight this morning and now he breaks through for them with his precision! The Indian skipper has to walk back for another low score and India are now 5 down for 74, trailing by another 371 runs. Cummins goes a bit fuller just around that fifth stump line, tempting the batter to play at it. Rohit Sharma goes after it with not much of conviction which was on display with his lack of foot movement and gets an outside edge straight into the mitts of Alex Carey behind the stumps. Pat Cummins is pumped up and why wouldn't he be? India need 172 more runs to avoid the follow-on.

Pat Cummins to Ravindra Jadeja, OUT! CAUGHT! Pat Cummins gets the big fish and the short ball ploy is executed to perfection! Australia believe they can force a follow-on with Jadeja trudging back to the hut! Cummins digs it into the deck, over middle, Ravindra Jadeja is hurried by the pace of the delivery and goes through to crack his pull shot. Doesn't manage to get on top of the bounce and hits it aerially in front of deep square leg where Mitchell Marsh charges in and takes a solid catch with a dive in front. Jadeja goes for 77 (123). India are now 213/9, requiring 33 more runs to avoid the follow-on.

Pat Cummins to Nitish Kumar Reddy, OUT! DRAGGED ON! Just before this ball, Adam Gilchrist said on air that he felt something was going to happen and right on cue, Pat Cummins has struck for Australia. Nitish Kumar Reddy throws his head back in disappointment. On a back of a length, seaming back in a bit, on off, Nitish Kumar Reddy tries to dab it down on the off side with an angled bat but ends up playing outside the line of the ball. The ball comes back in enough to catch the inside edge and it crashes back onto the stumps. The 53-run stand is broken. India are now 194/7, needing 52 more runs to avoid the follow-on.

Mitchell Starc to Mohammed Siraj, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Alex Carey takes a brilliant catch and ends the misery for Siraj! India slip further down to 201/8! Starc goes full and on off, inviting Siraj to play at it. Siraj duly obliges and goes for a full-blooded drive only to get an outside edge that flies to the right of the keeper. Alex Carey dives to that side and takes a sharp catch. India lose their 8th wicket, needing 45 more runs to avoid the follow-on.

Travis Head to Akash Deep, OUT! STUMPED! Carey appeals for a stumping! The umpires have gone upstairs to see whether it is out or not! The Australians think they have got their man! Travis Head fires it full and outside off, from around the wicket, Akash Deep strides out to defend it but gets beaten on the outside edge as it goes to the keeper. Alex Carey dislodges the bails in no time as he collects the ball. The replays show that there was nothing behind the line and all Akash Deep could manage was to have his back leg on the line, but not any part of it was behind it which makes it an easy decision for the third umpire who deems it OUT. India are then finally bundled out for 260 runs and the 47-run stand for that last wicket is broken by Head. Australia now have a lead of 185 runs!

Akash Deep to Nathan McSweeney, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Akash Deep joins the fray and gets a wicket off his very first over. Australia three down now for just 16! Short of a length, well outside off, Nathan McSweeney for once goes fishing at it and plays away from his body with an angled bat. The ball does not rise as much as McSweeney expected. Gets a faint bottom edge that goes straight to Rishabh Pant, the keeper. 

Jasprit Bumrah to Usman Khawaja, OUT! TIMBER! Jasprit Bumrah has cleaned Khawaja up and has claimed him for the fourth time in this series! Steams in and hits the deck on a perfect length, around off and angles it into the batter, Usman Khawaja looks to play at it with a straight bat but misses on the inside edge. The ball sneaks through and deflects off his back pad to clatter into the off stump.

Jasprit Bumrah to Marnus Labuschagne, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Jasprit Bumrah is on a roll here! Australia are two down in a jiffy! An uncanny shot from Marnus Labuschagne who so often bats with patience but has to depart for just a run. Jasprit Bumrah keeps it short of a good length and well outside off, shaping away just a touch off the deck. Marnus Labuschagne hangs back and looks to cut it square on the off side but gets an outside edge that goes straight into the mitts of Rishabh Pant behind the stumps. Bumrah now has the most wickets by an Indian in Test cricket in Australia with 52 wickets, going past Kapil Dev's tally of 51.

Akash Deep to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! GONE! CAUGHT BEHIND! Australia are four down! Akash Deep gets his second! Back of a length from over the wicket, just outside off, straightens off the deck, Mitchell Marsh tries to play a back foot punch with no feet movement. He tries to withdraw his bat but it is too late by then. The ball kisses the outside edge and goes straight to the keeper Rishabh Pant who takes a simple catch. Mitchell Marsh departs after scoring just 2 runs.

Mohammed Siraj to Travis Head, OUT! CAUGHT! Travis Head holes out. Another short one from Siraj, this time around middle and off, hit the deck kind of delivery. Travis Head looks to pull but the ball just gets big on him and lobs off the upper half to the gully region. Rishabh Pant calls for the catch and quickly moves across to take it with ease. Australia lose their 6th for 60 runs with a lead of 245 runs.

Mohammed Siraj to Steven Smith, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Smith is strangled down leg by Siraj and his happiness knows no bounds! A brilliant take from Rishabh Pant sees Smith trudge back for just 4 runs as Australia lose half their side. Back of a length, angling down leg, Steven Smith stays rooted in the crease and looks to tickle it down leg but only manages to get a feather of an inside edge that brushes the thigh and flies to the left of the keeper. Rishabh Pant does exceptionally well to dive to that side with fully stretched hands and snaffles it in. Australia are 33/5, leading by 218 runs.

Jasprit Bumrah to Pat Cummins, OUT! CAUGHT! The fun is over for Cummins! Bumrah starts from over the wicket and slips in a slower delivery, on off, Cummins stays low to make the connection and sets himself up to go back over the bowler's head. Gets deceived by the slowness of the delivery and the ball goes straight up off the bottom part of the bat. KL Rahul at cover, runs over his right shoulder and takes the catch. Australia lose their 7th wicket with a lead of 270 runs.
