The hosts added valuable runs to their total, pushing it to 445 all out early on Monday. Pacers Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood then put on a dominant display to put India under pressure.
Starc struck early, dismissing Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill in his first two overs and then Hazlewood claimed the prized wicket of Virat Kohli just before one of the rain interruptions forced an early lunch with India at 22/3.
Aussie skipper Pat Cummins came to bowl and removed Rishabh Pant, further reducing India to 44/4. The visitors eventually ended the day at 51/4, with Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer at the crease.
