#Adelaide: As the game of fourth day of 1st Test in between Australia and India ends, Australia had scored 290 runs on the loss of five wickets and had lead by 363 runs. Australian batsman #David #Warner had scored his second successive century in the first Test match.
#India will have to bat the day out tomorrow in the fifth day.
Opening batsman David Warner added a half-century to his first innings ton as #Australia pushed their lead to 212 runs at tea on day four of the first Test after bowling India out for 444 in the morning on Friday.
#Chris #Rogers fell for 21 when his ill-struck sweep was caught at midwicket off the bowling of legspinner #Karn #Sharma, but Warner (69 not out) and #Shane #Watson (33 not out) combined for 101 runs to push Australia to 139-1.
A match that had proceeded quietly suddenly became tetchy as pacer #Varun #Aaron bowled Warner for 66, giving the opener a big send-off and then becoming crestfallen when the wicket was cancelled because he had overstepped his mark.
Warner walked back to the crease and fired some choice of words of his own at Aaron, prompting India opener #Shikhar #Dhawan to come remonstrate.
More India players rushed to the middle to express their opinion, causing umpires #Marais #Erasmus and #Ian #Gould to intervene and keep them apart from Australia’s batsmen.
