India, who had to bat for an over before stumps, were /0 with openers KL Rahul and Murali Vijay making sure that India did not lose a wicket.

Australia, who were cruising to 131/1 at lunch, lost their last nine wickets for 169 runs as the 22-year-old Kuldeep bamboozled the Australian batsmen. His surname sake, Umesh Yadav (2/69), scalped 2 wickets while Bhuvneshwar Kumar (1/41), R Ashwin (1/54) and Ravindra Jadeja (1/57) scalped a wicket each while Steve O’Keefe was run out courtesy Shreyas Iyer’s brilliance in the field.

India 0/0 from 1 over:

Stumps! No last-over drama as KL Rahul safely negotiates one over bowled by Josh Hazlewod before stumps.

Australia 300 all out from 88.3 overs:

WICKET and ALL OUT! Nathan Lyon chips one to the leg-side and Cheteshwar Pujara takes a fine low catch. Bhuvneshwar Kumar wraps up Australian innings. India have to come out to bat for one over.

Australia 299/9 from 87.4 overs:

WICKET! Ravindra Jadeja strikes, Matthew Wade's vigil comes to an end as he fails to connect one. Ball kisses the off-stump.

Australia 269/8 from 79.3 overs:

WICKET! Shreyas Iyer gets into the action. He may not be a part of playing XI but as a substitute, he has made his presence felt. Beautiful pick up and throw and Steve O'Keefe is well short of his crease.

Australia 245/7 from 72.4 overs:

WICKET! Kuldeep Yadav is in fine form. Beats Cummins with the flight of his ball, as the Aussie right hander tries to drive it, but only manages to hit it straight back to the chinaman, who gladly took the catch.

Australia 208/6 from 61 overs:

TEA BREAK! WICKET! Big wicket. R Ashwin has dashed Australia's hopes of reviving the innings as he sent Steve Smith packing on the stroke of tea. Ajinkya Rahane has done a remarkable job to hold on to a brilliant catch in the slip as India made up for their below par showing in the first session. 5 wickets and just 77 runs in the second session, India are well and truly back in this Test.

Australia 178/5 from 49 overs:

WICKET! Kuldeep is all over Australia. Wrong'un and Glenn Maxwell has no clue about what happened there. Timber disturned and Kuldeep is over the moon. Brilliant bowling display on Test debut. Australia have lost 4 wickets post lunch.

Australia 168/4 from 44.5 overs:

WICKET! Kuldeep Yadav strikes with a beaut. Peter Handscomb gets out. The ball shatters Handscomb's defence before shattering the timber. Beautifully done. Australia have lost 3 wickets in this session. 

Australia 153/3 from 37.4 overs:

WICKET! Shaun Marsh departs as he was strangled for room down the leg-side. The ball kisses his glove and Saha makes no mistake behind the wickets. Australia lose 2 wickets in quick succession post lunch. India are looking to make up for the lack of wickets in the first session.

Australia 144/2 from 34.1 overs:

WICKET! Kuldeep Yadav strikes. His first wicket on Test debut. David Warner edges one to the slip and Ajinkya Rahane makes no mistake holding on to an easy catch. Spin and bounce for Kuldeep and second wicket for India.

Australia 131/1 from 31 overs:

LUNCH! Australia's session as Steve Smith and David Warner scored at brisk pace. Warner, who was dropped on the first ball of the match, has made the most of that chance to bring up his first fifty of this series while Smith has continued his excellent run of form to notch up his 21st Test half-century. Australia in charge.

Australia 57/1 from 11 overs:

Smith on the charge as Australia churn out runs with ease. Fifty up in no time. India need to scalp a wicket here to stop the free flow of runs.

Australia 45/1 from 8 overs:

Steve Smith and David Warner have not allowed the loss of early wicket bog them down. There are flurry of fours as Australia score at brisk pace.

Australia 10/1 from 2 overs:

WICKET! Umesh Yadav strikes. Absolute gem of a ball. Renshaw's defence is broken as the stumps go flying. How India needed that early wicket!

Australia 10/0 from 1 over:

DROPPED! Karun Nair drops David Warner on the first ball of the match. India must hold onto everything that comes their way. Not a good start for India for sure. And to add insult to the injury, Australia score 10 runs in the first over.

Dharamsala: Australia have won the toss and elected to bat in the fourth and final Test against India  here on Saturday as Virat Kohli is ruled out of the Test after he failed to get 100 per cent fit for the final Test.

India have made two changes in the side and are fielding 5 bowlers in the team. Kuldeep Yadav is making his Test debut while Bhuvneshwar Kumar has replaced Ishant Sharma in the playing XI. Australia, meanwhile, have made no changes in the team that played in Ranchi Test.

Preview:

Will he or will he not? All eyes will be on Virat Kohli or to be precise on his right shoulder as India gear up for the fourth and final Test of the series against Australia and the last Test of their long home season, at the picturesque Dharamsala on Saturday.

The series, which has thus far seen some gritty performances, a dominating win, some riveting bowling spells and a multiple batting collapses alongside a lot of argy-bargy between both the sides, will witness its final showdown in Dharamsala as Steve Smith and Co are aiming to become the first Australian side since 2004 to win a series in India.

However, it won’t be an easy task as the hometeam – with or without Kohli – is unlikely to offer an inch.

While the wicket for the fourth Test is said to offer bounce and pace and will assist bowlers and batsmen in equal measure, it will be interesting to see how the team shape up for the last Test of what has been an enthralling series.
