Australia will resume at 6/237 after a tension filled day two of the second Test against India. In what was a day for Test cricket purists, the visitors performed well with the bat, building a lead of 48 with four wickets in hand.
Matt Renshaw battled for his 60, before being stumped off the bowling of Jadeja. While Shaun March repaid the selectors for their faith, with an impressive 66. He was removed late on day two, which bought Matthew Wade, and Mitch Starc together. The pair remain not out over night.
Tempers flared throughout the day, with Indian skipper Virat Kohli being at the centre of most incidents. He and fellow captain Steve Smith came together in between overs, while youngster Matt Renshaw was at the receiving end of some sledging.
The Aussies will now look to push on with the bat. Matt Wade is in desperate need of some runs. If he is it to go on with his 25* and make a big score, his spot may be cemented for the rest of the tour.
No matter the lead, the pressure will be on the Indian batsmen. Their highest single innings score so far for the series is 189, and they currently average around 133 runs per innings. Virat Kohli has come under scrutiny for his performance after three failures from three bats. The captain will surely look to step up and put on a score, while there are other names who need to do the same.
Indian batsmen Cheteshwar Pujara believed his side performed well with the ball, despite not necessarily getting the desired results.
"Throughout the day we bowled really well, it wasn't easy for the fast bowlers... they put in a lot of hard work." he said.
The first Test was decided inside three days, it isn't clear whether the same will happen for the second. However, there is no doubt tensions will again be at a high, as the two sides fight it out for ascendancy not only in the match, but also the series.
