India v Australia photos

India go in search of early wickets while Australia look to hold firm as day four of the third Test in Delhi gets underway

Australia's Shane Watson makes a bright start, hitting Zaheer Khan four two boundaries in the opening over

Michael Clarke drives Amit Mishra straight to Ishant Sharma but the India fast bowler lets the ball slip through his hands at head height

Clarke takes advantage of his reprieve, passing 50 and helping his side towards their follow-on target

But Clarke's 73-run stand with the Watson comes to an end when the latter sees his leg stump knocked back by Virender Sehwag

India captain Anil Kumble claims his first wicket of the series when he has Brad Haddin stumped by Mahendra Dhoni

After showing restraint throughout a crucial period for Australia, Cameron White lets loose by clubbing Anil Kumble for six

White is eventually ousted when he plays on to Sehwag, giving the spinner his first five-wicket haul in Test cricket

But it is Australia who have the final laugh before tea as Michael Clarke records his eighth Test century

Brett Lee and Mitchell Johnson fall to Kumble and Clarke to Mishra as Australia are bowled out for 577, a 36-run deficit

Australia end day four on top as Lee bowls Sehwag and Stuart Clark has nightwatchman Ishant Sharma caught by Ricky Ponting
