After 99 overs,India 304/6 ( Washington Sundar 53 , Shardul Thakur 64)
Bowling change as Cummins returns to the attack. Doesn’t even look like Shardul and Sundar are up against the mighty Aussie bowling attack. Such has been their dominance. Shardul miscues the pull shot off the penultimate delivery, top edges the ball over Paine for a boundary. Seven runs off the over.
FOUR! Short from Cummins, Shardul goes for the pull but the ball fins the top edge of his bat and flies over Paine for a boundary.
After 98 overs,India 297/6 ( Washington Sundar 53 , Shardul Thakur 58)
Lyon continues. Both the batters have got their eye in. Playing like specialist batsmen, these two. Proper cricketing shots. Runs coming thick and fast. Five runs in the over.
After 97 overs,India 292/6 ( Washington Sundar 50 , Shardul Thakur 56)
Starc continues. Sundar brings up his half century on Test debut with a single off the third delivery. Oh and he’s hit on the chest with a venomous bouncer on the fifth. Nasty blow there. Three singles off the over.
50 up for Washington Sundar. Talk about making a statement. Maiden Test fifty for him on debut. Played like a specialist batsman. After chipping in with the ball, he’s making it count with the bat too.
After 96 overs,India 289/6 ( Washington Sundar 49 , Shardul Thakur 54)
Lyon continues. Shardul whacks him for a six over long on to bring up his maiden Test half-century. Later, Sundar whacks the ball through the covers to bring up the 100-run stand between the two batsmen. 11 runs off the over.
FOUR! Sundar gives himself room and slaps the ball through the covers. 100 partnership up between Sundar and Shardul.
50! Shardul taking a leaf out of Sehwag’s playbook. Getting to the milestone with a massive six over long on. His maiden Test half-century.
After 95 overs,India 278/6 ( Washington Sundar 45 , Shardul Thakur 47)
Starc right up there with his speeds in the last couple of overs. He’s really steaming in. Clocks 147.5 kph off the first, down leg though. Again around leg, the third delivery, it hits Shardul and races away for a boundary, byes but India will happily take them. The lines have got to be more accurate from Starc. Five runs off the over.
India vs Australia 2020-21 Live score and latest update of 4th Test at Brisbane: Lyon continues from one end. One run off the over, courtesy a leg bye. Lyon’s frustration showing as he throws the ball at Sundar after the last delivery even though the left-hander was well inside the crease.
Day 2 report: The deciding fourth Test between Australia and India in Brisbane hung in the balance Saturday after a massive thunderstorm caused play to be abandoned following the tea break on the second day.
The Gabba was saturated during the storm, which began during the tea break, and while the ground drained quickly, the umpires decided the outfield was too wet to allow play to continue.
India will resume on Sunday at 62 for two, 307 runs behind Australia's first innings total of 369, with Cheteshwar Pujara on eight alongside skipper Ajinkya Rahane, who was on two.
Australia had earlier claimed the vital wicket of Rohit Sharma 20 minutes before tea to seize the momentum.
Sharma had been in full flow, striking 44 stylish runs from 74 deliveries with six boundaries.
But with the score on 60 for the loss of opener Shubman Gill (7), Sharma threw his wicket away when he charged off-spinner Nathan Lyon, only managing to sky a ball to Mitchell Starc at deep mid-on.
The Australian off-spinner is playing his 100th Test match and is closing in on 400 wickets -- Sharma was his 397th.
"I had a couple of plans for Rohit," Lyon said.
"Obviously he's a world-class player, so I just wanted to make sure I was bowling my best ball, and not try to worry too much about what the batters are doing."
He said the wicket was different from a normal Gabba strip.
"It is a lot drier than it usually is," Lyon said.
"It was probably more like a day three wicket (on day one) and there's a nice crack outside the off-stump.
"I'm trying to aim at that and hopefully bring in both edges and see how we go."
Pat Cummins had made the early breakthrough for the hosts when Shubman Gill got a thick edge and Steve Smith took a sharp catch at second slip.
'A lot of character'
After resuming at 274 for five on Saturday morning, Australia lost five wickets in the first session including the overnight batsmen Tim Paine and Cameron Green.
Paine and Green had started aggressively on a flat batting wicket and looked to push the score beyond 400.
But shortly after reaching his half-century, Paine chased a wide ball from Shardul Thakur (3-94) and edged to Sharma at third slip to leave Australia 311 for six.
Green survived a sharp chance on 45 off Washington Sundar but two runs later, the off-spinner got his revenge when he bowled the Australian number six for 47.
Thakur, playing only his second Test, took his third wicket when he trapped Cummins leg-before for two to leave the hosts struggling at 315 for seven.
However, Lyon and Starc went on the attack and the score raced to 354 before Sundar bowled Lyon around his legs after his quickfire 24 off 22 deliveries.
When T. Natarajan bowled Josh Hazlewood to end the innings, the inexperienced Indian attack had completed an impressive comeback on a hot and humid Brisbane morning.
The Indian attack features two players making their debut -- Natarajan (3-78) and Sundar (3-89) -- while their most experienced bowler, Mohammad Siraj, is playing just his third Test following a raft of injures to their first-choice bowlers.
"I think it was a great effort from both the newcomers," Sharma said.
"Obviously playing against Australia in Australia is never going to be that easy.
"They (the bowlers) showed a lot of character. They were right in the game and understood what is the team expecting from them to do."
To compound India's problems, Navdeep Saini was only able to bowl 7.5 overs on the first day before he broke down with a groin injury.
