Australia managed to get opener Ruturaj Gaikwad out cheaply 8 (12) and then Shreyas Iyer 105 (90) joined Shubman Gill 104 (97) to steady the ship. The duo hit scintilating boundries across the park to stitch a 200 runs partnership. After the departure of Gill and Iyer, India captain KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan maintained the momentum against the potent Australian attack to take India's score.
