India did not lose a single wicket in the entire third session on day three. It was heartening for the fans that the batsmen — who had failed to cross 200 in the series till then — put up a fight.
But on day four, it was back to familiar times.
All the hard work put in by Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane were undone with yet another batting collapse, with India going from 238-4 to 274 all out. Not for the first time in the series, India crumbled against disciplined Australian bowling.
Twitter, as always, was full of chatter as Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood ran through the Indian line-up.
Quite brilliant bowling, honestly.

Maybe there is hope?
We’ll just leave you with this. #TheFeels
