India have put in a steady start against Australia, on Day 4, of the ongoing third Test match, at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Openers Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill have been anchoring India's innings with a cautious approach. The hosts posted a score of 312 runs for six wickets on Day 4. Tim Paine was unbeaten after scoring 39 runs. Cameron Green's (84) dismissal ended the session, with both teams leaving for Tea break. Steve Smith registered a half-century and was dismissed by Ravichandran Ashwin after scoring 81 runs. Meanwhile, Marnus Labuschagne registered his second half-century of this Test match, but lost his wicket to Navdeep Saini. Matthew Wade could also muster only four runs before Saini dismissed him. India will be hoping to put in a good start, and maybe get close to staging a turnaround in the third Test match. (LIVE SCORECARD)
