    Led by openers KL Rahul and Murali Vijay, India fought back with the bat after Australia had posted a total of 451 in their first innings on day two of the third Test in Ranchi.

    India were 120/1 at the end of day’s play, with KL Rahul getting dismissed after he scored his fourth half-century of the series. Murali Vijay [42*] and Cheteshwar Pujara [10*] will resume batting on Saturday.

    Earlier, captain Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell’s centuries helped the Australians put up a sizeable score on the board. Smith remained unbeaten on 178 at the end of the innings, while Maxwell scored 104.

    As expected, on Twitter, there was much praise for Smith and Maxwell after their sublime knocks.

    Former Australian captain Michael Clarke hailed Indian left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja, who picked up five wickets despite not getting much assistance from the pitch.
