A brilliant batting partnership between Shardul Thakur and Washington Sundar on Sunday made sure India remained in the game after the end of Day Three of the fourth and final Test against Australia at The Gabba.
Thakur and Sundar shared a 123-run partnership for the seventh wicket which helped India concede a lead of just 33, which at one stage looked like to be in excess of 150.
India got bundled out for 336 in their first innings, riding on brilliant, maiden half centuries from the two young bowlers.

Australia, who had scored 369 in their first innings, then ended the day reaching 21/0 in their second innings. Openers David Warner and Marcus Harris remained unbeaten on 20 and 1 respectively, helping Australia swell their lead to 54.
It was an action packed day with multiple high points, especially during the Thakur-Washington partnership. From some reckless shots in the first half of the day to some sublime strokeplay in the second, the day had it all.
