FOUR! FOUR! FOUR!

Natarajan has been punished brutally by Marcus Harris with three consecutive boundaries - the 2nd one coming off a no ball. This is poor from Natarajan - he is struggling with his lines here.

India need wickets

David Warner and Marcus Harris had a nervy start to the day, but they have weathered the storm and are now just playing down the Indian pacers. India need to get a wicket soon, they do not want these two to settle down and be comfortable.

Siraj to Warner - FOUR!

FOUR! Lucky, very lucky David Warner. Short off stump, Warner was completely beaten here, but it just went past the fielder for a boundary. Nervy moments for Australia.

Natarajan to Harris - FOUR!

CHANCE! Marcus Harris almost edged it to Rohit Sharma, he was tricked by Natarajan's movement and the length on the delivery. But the ball missed the fielder and went to a boundary towards the third man.

Siraj to Warner - FOUR!

FOUR! Lovely shot, a great drive off the bat, coming down so nicely. This will race to the ropes. First boundary of the day, and Warner has started from where he had left yesterday.

India vs Australia Day 4 - HERE WE GO!

David Warner and Marcus Harris are out to bat for Australia. India start the attack with Mohammed Siraj. HERE WE GO!

Key for Australia

David Warner has been criticised for his batting in the series so far, but Day 4 could be his redemption. If he gets going, India are in trouble.

Rain factor?

The rain is expected to play a role today as showers are in forecast. India will hope that these are just passing showers, and do not take too much time out of the game.

Key for India

The key for India would be Mohammed Siraj. He needs to do what Josh Hazlewood did yesterday, keep bowling the right areas and get wickets.

Washington Sundar-Shardul Thakur

The duo of Washington Sundar and Shardul Thakur who added 123 runs among themselves to help India reach close to the Australia's first innings total were hero of Day 3. Can they be the hero of Day 4 as well by picking wickets?
