  • 167.2

    OUT! Bowled. Nathan Lyon to Ravindra Jadeja. Off break length ball, outside off stump down the track Slog, missed to. Bit of a wild heave across the line and Jadeja misses a straight delivery and the chance for another Test ton. Lyon deservedly picks up his fourth wicket after bowling for nearly 58 overs. And on the stroke of that wicket Kohli calls in the troops and decides he wants to have a quick bowl at the openers tonight. Australia have been well and truly dominated today and their bowlers will be incredibly tired after 167 overs in the field. This is going to be a tricky session for the Aussie openers coming up against fresh bowlers and with nothing to gain.

  • 166.5

    FOUR! Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant. Out-swinging full toss, to leg on the front foot flick, well timed past deep square leg for 4 runs. The wristwork on this shot is incredible. Whips the low full toss with minimal effort but generates amazing timing and power. Is there nothing this guy can't do?

  • 166.3

    FOUR! Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant. Short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Maiden 150 for Pant. Hearty pull shot down into the ground and into the fence. What an innings this has been.

  • 166.1

    FOUR! Josh Hazlewood to Rishabh Pant. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control past long off for 4 runs. Maybe not where Pant was aiming but effective. More of a slice than a full blown drive down the ground.

  • 163.6

  • 163.5

    FOUR! Pat Cummins to Ravindra Jadeja. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control past long on for 4 runs. Front leg is out of the way and the ball is hit back over Cummins' head. Jadeja is eyeing up a Test century.

  • 163.1

    FOUR! Pat Cummins to Ravindra Jadeja. Length ball, down leg side on the back foot pulling, well timed past deep backward square leg for 4 runs. Superb piece of timing from little more than a short-arm pull.

  • 162.6

    Josh Hazlewood to Ravindra Jadeja. Short, down leg side on the back foot Fended, hit helmet to short fine leg for 1 run, fielded by Paine. Ripping delivery so late in the day and catches Jadeja flush on the helmet.

    Josh Hazlewood to Ravindra Jadeja. Half volley, outside off stump no foot movement, Left to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Paine.

  • 104.5

    OUT! L.B.W. Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Kuldeep Yadav to Josh Hazlewood. Googly length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, hit pad to. That's plumb, an easy one for the umpire and Kuldeep eventually finishes with five wickets. A fantastic effort by the young legspinner on his first appearance in this country. Hazlewood didn't pick the googly and was pinned right in front, before the almost customary review is used in vain. It looks like the follow-on has been enforced.

    Jasprit Bumrah to Marcus Harris. Length ball, down leg side on the front foot defending, to point for no runs.

    Welcome to the final day of the Test series, in what has been a terrific few weeks if you are an Indian fan, not so much for the Australian folk, though. All today will determine is whether the final score will finish 2-1, or 3-1, to the visitors. The hosts will want to see their side fight it out for the draw, and show that this inexperienced batting line up has shown progress in recent times. India will win their first ever series in this part of the world, so why not make it more flattering? They have been much the better team in all three departments, and fully deserve their rewards. Whatever the result today, let us hope the players put on a show for the spectators to cap off a compelling series.

    A disappointing start to today, as there is some light drizzle in the air. Hopefully that passes quickly and we can get back to the cricket.

    A tepid way to finish the match, and series. Unfortunately no play today, and that means things end in a draw, with India taking home a 2-1 victory. The attention will now turn to the white ball format, with the first of three ODIs beginning on Saturday. Do join us for that.
