India vs Australia Highlights, 4th Test, Day 2: India score 62/2 before rain plays spoilsport

Starc hit a pull shot which was racing to the boundary but Natarajan made a superb effort to save a boundary. Interestingly, Lyon and Starc took just one run.

Nathan Lyon is getting some useful runs for Australia. He has hit 21 runs off just 16 balls. India losing momentum quickly.

Mitchell Starc did not wait for long as he smashed a six off Sundar. Lyon has also hit a four off Shardul. Australia's strategy seems clear.

Australia lose their eighth wicket with Pat Cummins departing back to the pavilion. Shardul bowled a full delivery which Cummins missed and was trapped on his pads. Three wickets for India.

Washington Sundar castles Cameron Green with a straighter one. Another wicket falls and Australia are seven wickets down.

GONE! Shardul Thakur manages to get a nick off Tim Paine's bat and it is taken by Rohit Sharma. BIG WICKET. AUS 311/6

Tim Paine brings up his half century at Gabba, and he will enjoy this after all the backlash he received at MCG.

Cameron Green and Tim Paine are both approaching their half centuries at the moment. The duo are batting on 45* and 49*, respectively.

FOUR! Genuine half-volley from Shardul Thakur, Tim Paine goes after it, and gets it away for a boundary. Takes Aussies past 300

FOUR! Natarajan bowls to Green, he pitches it fuller and this one goes to the ropes. Green is looking really solid. Australia 298/5

Mohammed Siraj has come into the attack once again. This has been a tough start for Indian bowlers on Day 2, but there have been a few chances, and Siraj will hope to grasp on those.

Rishabh Pant appeared to be in some form of pain - the phsyio had a look. He looks to good go now. Injuries, injures!

Natarajan gets another No Ball - he has had this problem in the day. He needs to get his markings right.

Australia off to good start.

FOUR! Sensational drive from Cameron Green, and this will race to the boundary ropes. Green seems to be in a mood. He is enjoying playing these drives. Good start to the day.

FOUR! Green was beaten on the previous ball, and he bounces back with a cracker of a shot to get the first boundary away in the day. Good start to the day, exciting things in store.

Tim Paine will be Australia's key on Day 2 and he has the painful task of ensuring his team does not lose early wickets. If Aussies can reach somewhere close to 500, it might just be enough to put pressure on the inexperienced Indian team.

“The Indian bowlers get the first wickets but they struggle to get the last five wickets,” Gavaskar said in the Extraaa Innings show aired on Sony Sports Network after the end of first day’s play in Brisbane.

Will this trend continue at Gabba?

“It seemed like Ashwin gave Washington Sundar the guru-mantra on how to dismiss Steve Smith, along with his cap, about the line to be bowled in these conditions. We saw that he was able to get the ball to drift like Ashwin although he is quicker in the air than Ashwin,” Zaheer Khan said on Sony Sports Network.

“I think Kuldeep should be very disappointed, and why shouldn’t he? After the last Test of the last series, he was the No. 1 spinner for India. He hasn’t played a Test since I think. If you're going in with five bowlers, which they've obviously looked at the experience and perhaps thought need a cushion. But why not play another spinner? It gives you that balance in the attack. If the pitch flattens out, and there isn’t much for the quicks, then suddenly it becomes a one-dimensional attack,” Agarkar said on the 'Extraaa Innings' show on Sony Sports Network.

Labuschagne: "You know you don't need to be playing at anything around 4th stump line or even 3 and half stumps. I tell myself to be cool, when you get to a hundred just carry on. It's about how that moment is, I don't plan my hundred celebration. Little bit disappointed that I got out. For Tim and Green to play like that against the new ball was good. Maybe we have a slight edge but they hung in there throughout."

India will be looking at Siraj to provide some inspiration with the ball early on in Day 2. Sundar did not have the best of days with the ball, and so it may go down to pacers.

Hello and welcome to our live blog on Day 2 of the fourth and final Test between India and Australia at Gabba. India are missing crucial players in the bowling attack, but did well to keep the hosts at 287/5. The Ajinkya Rahane-led team will hope to get a few quick wickets on Day 2 and bundle out the opposition below 350. Tim Paine and Cameron Green will hope to find some form.
