The bad light stopped the play after tea-break on Day 4 at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Usman Khawaja (4*) and Marcus Harris (2*) were at the crease as Australia concluded the second session at six without loss, trailing India by 316 runs, after being bowled out for 300.

Earlier, the morning session was washed out due to persistent drizzle and bad light. Without a single ball bowled in the session that was scheduled to start 30 minutes before the regular time, India were in command since the beginning. The visitors are 2-1 up in the four-match series and eyeing a first-ever Test series win Down Under. Spinner Kuldeep Yadav claimed a five-wicket haul, his second in Test cricket, as India wrapped up Australia for 300, with a lead of 322 runs. Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami took two wickets each, while Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Peter Handscomb (37) to join the party.
