By PTI

AHMEDABAD: India were 362 for four in their first innings at lunch on day four of the fourth and final Test against Australia here on Sunday.

Virat Kohli was unbeaten on 88 (219 balls; 5×4), 12 runs shy of his first Test century since November 2019.

Batting ahead of Shreyas Iyer, who went for scans after complaining of back pain, wicketkeeper-batter Srikar Bharat (25 batting; 70b, 1×4, 1×6) was giving Kohli company in an unbroken 53-run partnership.

The hosts are still trail-touring Australia by 118 runs.

Resuming the day on 289/3, India lost their first wicket of the day when Todd Murphy (2/64) dismissed Ravindra Jadeja (28).

Brief scores: Australia’s first innings: 480 all out; 167.2 overs.

India’s first innings: 362/4 in 131 overs (Shubman Gill 128, Virat Kohli 88 batting, Cheteshwar Pujara 42; Todd Murphy 2/64, Matthew Kuhnemann 1/57).
