IND vs AUS 4th Test LIVE Score: So, at the end of the day, Australia managed 311/6, largely because of Sam Konstas’ 60 and Steve Smith’s unbeaten 68. But the hero of the day for India was Jasprit Bumrah, who bagged 75/3 in the day.
The carnage continued in the last session as Marnus Labuschagne brought up his second 50 of the series and Steve Smith dealt in boundaries to trouble India. The score moved to 208/2. Eventually, the partnership was broken by Washington Sundar, as Australia were 237/3. And soon after that, Jasprit Bumrah removed Travis Head for a duck as the score became 240/4. In the meantime, Steve Smith brought up his fifty too.
As Jasprit Bumrah started well for Team India, debutant Sam Konstas tries to reverse scoop the bowler a few times. He succeeds as he gets two fours and a six off him in one over. That meant Australia moved to 26/0. Soon with his fearless play, he ensured, he slammed his maiden 50 in quick time.
The Boxing Day Test is here. Christmas is gone, and there will be no exchange of gifts between the two sides with the India vs Australia Test series on the line. The hosts have already announced their XI with just one change as Scott Boland comes in for an injured Josh Hazelwood.
Things are very interesting in the visitors’ camp, as reports suggest Rohit Sharma will return to open, and KL Rahul will bat at number 3, Shubman Gill’s spot. So will Gill play? That’s yet to be seen. Also, Nitish Kumar Reddy, one of the biggest positives for Team India so far, might warm the bench with Washington Sundar replacing him.
