The Third Test between Australia and India comes down to Day 5, with India needing 309 runs for victory and Australia needing eight wickets.
Cam Green was the star with the bat for the Aussies on Day 4, hitting 84 off 132 balls to blow the team’s lead over 400.
Pujara (9) and Rahane (4) sit at the crease and will likely be the key partnership if India is to hold on for a gutsy draw.
Sharma (52) and Gill (31) got through the new ball before being dismissed by Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins respectively.

“If India (wins) you’d just have to say well played to them given they might be two batsmen short with Jadeja and maybe Pant, we’re not sure yet, and also the fact that the Australian bowlers have had a stranglehold over them on this wicket.
“Their scoring rate was around two runs an over so to score 400 is going to be a huge ask.
“Their openers played beautifully, but there was a couple of key breakthroughs late yesterday.
“There’s still a lot of work to be done. Pujara and Rahane are fine Test players and they will dig in and show some resolve today, but I think Australia should be able to get the job done today.”
