India vs Australia 4th Test Day 2 Highlights AS IT HAPPENED: 

STUMPS: Off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin picked a six-wicket haul in a magical display of skills on a tough Ahmedabad pitch as India bowled out Australia for 480 on Day 2 of the fourth and final Test of the series on Friday. For Australia, it was Usman Khawaja who stole the show as he scored 180 runs facing 422 balls showcasing his prowess as an opener. 


At the end of Day 2, India are 36/0 trailing by 444 runs with openers Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill in the middle. On a pitch which still hasn't shown signs of a sharp turn, Ashwin single-handedly got India back in the match. After picking three wickets in the second session, Ashwin took three more to get his six-fer and wrap Australia's innings at 167.2 overs.


TEA: Ace India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin took three in the afternoon session on Day 2 of the fourth Test. But Usman Khawaja still stood tall to be unbeaten on 180 at tea and carry Australia to 409/7 in 146 overs. It was a session in which India bounced back after going wicketless in the morning essay.

 After a change of ends as well as of load-up, Ashwin used his pace, angles, lines and control very well, which fetched him three crucial scalps. He first struck by taking out Cameron Green and breaking the 208-run stand for the fifth wicket, followed by taking two more quick wickets. 


LUNCH: Left-handed opener Usman Khawaja touched 150 while Cameron Green continues to impress to be on the verge of his first Test century as Australia reached 347/4 against India in the morning session on Day Two of the fourth and final Test at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Friday.

Khawaja and Green, unbeaten on 150 and 95 respectively, solidified their positions at the crease to fetch another wicketless session for Australia in this Test, adding 92 in 29 overs and their partnership for the fifth wicket standing at 177. For India, it was a session of toil under harsh Friday sun on a nice batting pitch, where their control with the ball was off the mark.
