India 143-6 (56 ovs) vs Aus | Scorecard

Hazlewood bowls a good over to Pujara, who can only defend and he does it with utmost caution.

Ashwin nudges Lyon past the slip fielder for one and Pujara chops down the track and flicks the off-spinner through midwicket for another single.

A single each to Pujara and Ashwin off Hazlewood before the former slashes a wide short delivery from the pacer over the slips for a four to take his score into the 40s, the only Indian batsman to achieve it in this innings.

With five minutes left for tea, India would be keen not to lose any more wickets in the session.

Part-time spinner Travis Head comes into the attack to bowl the final over of the session.

The off-spinner starts from round the wicket as Ashwin blocks the first ball before taking a single before Pujara also picks up one.

In the next over, Pujara drives Lyon through the covers for three runs as India end the post-lunch session on 143 for six in 56 overs.
