Hello and Welcome to ABP’s live coverage of the match between India and Australia. Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli sailed India’s boat on day 3 and helped their team to reach the total of 289/3 by the end of play of the fourth Test against Australia at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium on Saturday. India trails by 191 runs and it looks like India will start their day 4 campaign on high.

All eyes will be on Virat Kohli who has not scored a Test century in 14 months, he will look to make it big this time. While Shubman Gill registered his second Test hundred. He also added 74 run stand with skipper Rohit Sharma and 113 run partnership with Cheteshwar Pujara who also played a decent knock of 42.

Gill was quoted as saying by PTI as he recalled that not-so-great phase in his 15-Test career.

“I got a feeling that as soon as I was getting set, I was getting over defensive and over cautious. I was thinking now that I have got set, I will have to bat as long as possible. I was putting myself under too much pressure and that is not my game.

Currently, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja are at the crease and they will start the proceedings on day 4 for India. Earlier, Australia posted a huge total of 480 runs riding on the special knocks from Khawaja and Green. Left-hand batter scored a huge 180 runs while Green got his first Test century. Down the order, Nathan Lyon also batted well and helped Australia put in a massive total in front of the Indian team.
