Under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the fourth match of the five-match Test series has now reached a very exciting stage. India has scored 358 runs for the loss of 9 wickets with the first century of Indian cricketer Nitish Kumar Reddy's career and Washington Sundar's half-century (50 runs). At the time of stumps on the third day, Nitish Kumar Reddy is unbeaten on 105 runs and Mohammad Siraj is unbeaten on 2 runs at the crease. Based on the 474 runs scored by Australia in the first innings, the Indian team is still 116 runs behind the host team.

This match being played between India and Australia in Melbourne has been affected due to rain and low light. Something similar was seen during the match on the third day as well. The game of the final session started late due to rain. At the same time, after Nitish Kumar Reddy scored a century, the match had to be stopped prematurely due to low light, and later stumps were declared. Due to this, now the time of the match has been changed by the match referee.

The fourth day of the fourth Test match between India and Australia will start at a new time. Till now this match used to start at 5 am Indian time, but the time lost due to rain and low light will be compensated. Because of this, now you will have to get up a little early to enjoy the match. That is, now the match between the two teams on the fourth day will start half an hour earlier. Now you have to get up at 4:30 am Indian time to watch the match.
