India batter Shreyas Iyer did not walk out to bat after Cheteshwar Pujara was dismissed on Day 3 of the ongoing fourth Test against Australia. Instead, Ravindra Jadeja was promoted up the order. Similarly, on Day 4, wicketkeeper-batter KS Bharat joined Virat Kohli in the middle after Jadeja got out, following a bizarre shot-selection. Now, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has provided an update of Shreyas. The 28-year-old has picked up lower back pain and has been taken for scans.
Virat Kohli reached his first Test half-century since January 2022 during Day 3 of the ongoing fourth Test against Australia at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

It was a relief for Virat Kohli as he scored his first Test fifty in more than 14 months on Day 3 of the fourth Test encounter between India and Australia in Ahmedabad on Saturday. It was a gritty knock from the ex-India skipper, but he was made to wait by the umpire just before he could celebrate the milestone. Kohli placed the ball towards square leg and easily completed two runs to bring up his fifty by the on-field umpires asked him to wait. A review was underway to check if the runs were completely in the proper manner. Kohli, along with the spectators at the Narendra Modi Stadium, waited for the decision and once the check was completed, Kohli could not help but give a relieved smile.

Legendary India skipper Sunil Gavaskar had a special message for young opener Shubman Gill who impressed everyone with his gritty ton during Day 3 of the fourth Test match between India and Australia in Ahmedabad on Saturday.

In the aftermath of the innings, Gavaskar interviewed him along with other experts and he went on to offer blessings to him. The legendary batsman said that he was very happy with how Gill played enroute to his 128 and wished that he will go on to score than 15,000 runs in an illustious Test career in the future.
