On the first day of the third Test, hosts India found themselves in a deep pit as they were all out for 109 and the visitors have taken a lead of 47 runs with six wickets in hand. Peter Handscomb and Cameron Green were at the crease at the end of Day 1. Ravindra Jadeja picked all four wickets while Usman Khawaja has top-scored with 60.
Starting the innings, Australia lost Travis Head early, but Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne provided some stability and added 96 for the second wicket. Jadeja broke that partnership with a ball that stayed too low
