LUNCH - DAY 2

Aus 401-7 (118 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Smith takes a single off Ashwin to bring up his 150, from 315 balls as Australia inch towards the 400-run mark.

Smith is beaten again by Jadeja, who finds the edge but it falls short of the fielder at first slip. The Australia captain then chips down the track and lofts Jadeja to deep midwicket as he pushes Steve O'Keefe to come back for the second run.

That turns out to be the last over of the session as Australia go into the lunch break at 401 for seven in 118 overs.

Smith played through the session to be unbeaten on 153 at the break, with O'Keefe on one not out.

The session belonged to Australia as they scored 118 runs in 28 overs before Jadeja claimed three wickets to check their progress. The left-arm spinner was the standout bowler as he got some turn to register wonderful figures of four for 106 in 42 overs, while Ashwin failed to make an impression in the few overs he bowled before the lunch break.
