- Australia 24-0 (Harris 19no, Khawaja 5no) trailing by 598 runs
- In reply to India’s 622-7 dec (Pujara 193, Pant 159, Jadeja 81)
Centurions Cheteshwar Pujara and Rishabh Pant’s contrasting career highlights broke records and Australia’s resolve on day two of the fourth Test at the SCG, where India declared at 7-622.
Australia survived a 10-over burst to reach 0-24 at stumps, thanks partly to a dropped catch from Pant that handed Usman Khawaja a life on zero, but their hopes of avoiding a maiden home series loss to India are in tatters.
