India 0-0 (1 ov) vs Aus 300 | Scorecard

Welcome to the coverage of Day 2 of the fourth and final Test between India and Australia in Dharamsala on Sunday.

India would be looking to get off to a good start on the second day and seize the initiative in the morning session.

Debutant chinaman spinner Kuldeep Yadav's four-wicket haul had helped limit Australia to 300 after Steve Smith had stroked his third century of the series.

Smith, comfortably the leading scorer of the series, made 111 as he and David Warner, who scored 56, added 134 runs for the second wicket to help Australia dominate the morning session after opting to bat.

Left-arm wrist-spinner Yadav, an inspirational selection in India's bold move to go with five bowlers, led the hosts' strong comeback in the post-lunch session when five wickets tumbled for 64 runs.

Matthew Wade made 57 down the order to help Australia reach 300 before the tourists folded leaving India to bat the final over of the day, a maiden one from Josh Hazlewood.

The hosts received a jolt even before a ball was bowled when regular skipper Virat Kohli was ruled out of the match with a shoulder injury he had sustained in the drawn third Test in Ranchi.
