India lose Rohit, Rahul early after Australia's 474

Rohit Sharma was dismissed in the second over of India's innings. KL Rahul joined Yashasvi Jaiswal and looked set to take India to Tea, but was out just before the break bowled by Pat Cummins.

Australia resumed after an eventful morning session on 454/7 but lost two wickets quickly. Mitchell Starc was bowled by Ravindra Jadeja in the first over after Lunch. Steve Smith was dismissed in the next over, his wicket coming off a ricochet.

The final-wicket stand between Scott Boland and Nathan Lyon lasted for eight overs. Jasprit Bumrah returned to wrap up the innings with the wicket of Lyon.

Rohit fell in the second over trying to pull a ball that wasn't short enough. Rahul arrived early and looked comfortable in the company of Jaiswal. Right as the end of the session was approaching, Cummins got one ball to straighten off a length – squaring up Rahul and pegging back his off-stump.

Steve Smith scored his 34th Test hundred – his 11th against India in the format. He overcame a short tussle against Bumrah in the first hour to torment all of India's bowlers. Cummins scored a breezy 49 before holing out against Jadeja. Mitchell Starc arrived and kept Smith company. Australia managed to add just 20 runs to their total in the second session.

Brief scores: India 51/2 (Pat Cummins 2-27) trail Australia 474 (Steve Smith 140, Marnus Labuschagne 72; Jasprit Bumrah 4-99) by 423 runs
