Watch: Rishabh Pant's Reaction Can't Be Missed As Mix-Up With Ravindra Jadeja Almost Results In Run Out

A new problem for India that has risen during the fourth Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy has been the running between the wickets. On Day 2, mix-up and miscommunication between Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal saw the latter get run out. On Day 3, disaster almost struck twice after a mix-up between Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant resulted in Jadeja almost getting run out in similar fashion to Jaiswal. The incident led to Pant giving an unhappy reaction, and asking Jadeja for more clarity.

4th Test, Day 3: Gutsy Nitish Reddy's Maiden Ton Keeps India Afloat vs Australia

Nitish Reddy, an unknown entity in red ball cricket before the start of Border-Gavaskar series, virtually bailed India out with his dogged maiden Test century in Melbourne on Saturday, severely denting Australia's hopes of winning the Boxing Day contest. Reddy's unbeaten 105 took India to 358 for nine, still 116 runs short of Australia's first innings score of 474 as rain brought an early end to the third day's play. With the flat MCG deck not offering much to the bowlers, saving the Test match shouldn't be a big deal for India. Reddy, easily India's 'find of the series', played a pivotal role in visitors' fightback.

"Stupid, Go Back To...": Sunil Gavaskar Livid With Rishabh Pant. Reason For Rant Is...

Much was expected of Rishabh Pant, with India in dire straits on the third day of the fourth Test, but the India star delivered too little. It was the same careless old way of dismissal, something which made Gavaskar start a rant that has gone viral. The third day's MCG track is perhaps the best to bat on with green grass making way for a brownish tinge and old a Kookaburra hardly doing anything. Had Pant stuck around, there was no way he wouldn't have scored big. With Ravindra Jadeja (17 off 51 balls) for company, Pant did start well and got a few boundaries but then the urge to play the falling lap pull over long-leg brought about his dismissal.

India's start to the third day of the fourth Test against Australia in Melbourne was not promising at all as the Rohit Sharma-led side lost Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja in the first session itself. Being the last specialist batter left after India had gone five down on Day 2, all eyes were on Pant to deliver a memorable knock. But he could score only 28 off 37 balls. He did get a few boundaries and had lucky escapes, before falling to Scott Boland after attempting a lap shot and getting caught by Nathan Lyon.

"All In Same Boat": Rohit Sharma's Blunt Take On Team India's Struggling Trio

The trio of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant is aboard "the same boat" when it comes to erratic form in the ongoing Test series against Australia but skipper Rohit Sharma feels none of them should be "overburdened" with suggestions as it would complicate matters. Save Jaiswal's 161 in the second innings in the opening Test in Perth, white-ball vice-captain Gill and maverick match-winner Pant have endured poor scores in the three Tests so far. Jaiswal's struggles in the first innings are well-documented while Gill and Pant have been frittering away good starts.
