- Australia 191; India 244 and 9-1
- Tim Paine’s important knock gives hosts hope
A captain’s knock and wagging tail have given Australia some hope of victory in a day-night Test that hangs in the balance after two eventful days at the Adelaide Oval, where India are 9-1 in their second innings and lead by 62 runs.
Tim Paine led from the front with an unbeaten 73 on Friday, producing arguably his most important knock since memorably helping Australia salvage a draw against Pakistan in the aftermath of the Cape Town cheating scandal.
