The Melbourne crowd is witnessing the thrilling fourth day of the fourth Test match. As the Indian bowlers are showcasing excellence, the Australian batters are not backing down. With one wicket in hand, Nathan Lyon and Scott Boland are putting on a fierce fight for the Australian side. Amidst the intense action, Rohit Sharma’s brilliant catch effort grabbed the limelight.

Rohit’s Brilliant Effort Shuts The Critics

 As another edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is going on, captain Rohit Sharma is having a tough time. After missing out on the first Test, he joined the squad in the second Test but failed to remark. He struggled with the bat and scored only 21 runs in the last 5 innings. Along with that, Team India is also lagging in the tournament after a loss and a draw.

Captain Rohit Sharma often gets criticized by the fans due to his fitness. But he shuts down the critics with one of his exceptional efforts in this match. As Australia was batting in the second innings, the incident took place in the 69th over.

Jadeja’s delivery saw Nathan Lyon miscue the shot, sending the ball flying towards the slip. While positioning at the right point, he launched himself into a full-stretch dive but the ball was too far from him. He missed the chance to grab it. But that exceptional effort grabbed the limelight.

Australia Surpasses The 300-Run Mark

As day 4 resumed at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the Indian side bounced back remarkably. After Bumrah got the first breakthrough after dismissing Sam Konstas, Siraj carried on the momentum and dismissed Usman Khwaja in 21 runs. Coming to bat at the number 3 position, Marnus Labuschagne completed a crucial half-century and played an impactful knock of 70 runs in 139 deliveries.

After that, Australia lost four wickets consecutive wickets and the Indian side put pressure on them. After Pat Cummins came to bat, he played an impactful knock of 41 runs. That boosted Australia’s innings. As the Aussies have just one wicket in hand, they already go past the 300 run mark and took a lead of 323 runs.
