Day 3 pitch report: The wicket hasn’t changed much apart from few patches and that will see the ball keep low like it was the case on Day 3. There are also a fair bit of grass on the surface and would see seamers with more help.

@3 PM: Virat Kohli & Co begin warm-up.

Hello everyone, and welcome to Day 3 of what is a beautifully poised Test match. India currently have a lead of 245.
