#4 603/9d, India vs Australia, Ranchi
Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell’s centuries helped the Australians reach 451 in their first innings. Murali Vijay (82) and KL Rahul (67) provided India a solid start. Cheteshwar Pujara, who came out to bat at no.3, proved his mettle with a magnificent double ton (202) after spending over 11 hours on the pitch playing 525 balls. The middle order didn’t contribute much but Saha’s century (117) and Ravindra Jadeja’s unbeaten half-century (54*) in the lower order ensured India took a considerable lead in the Test match.
The Test match ended in a draw as two of the best teams in the world produced an excellent quality of cricket.
