India rode on Cheteshwar Pujara and Murali Vijay's dogged display to post 193/2 at lunch on the third day of the third cricket Test here on Saturday.
Left-arm spinner Steve O'Keefe gave the Aussies something to cheer about in the last ball of the first session, taking the wicket of Vijay (82 off 183; 10x4, 1x6) who played for spin but was stumped by wicketkeeper Mathew Wade.
The visitors though will be gutted to lose two reviews so early on in India's first innings, the second one going down the drain this morning when O'Keefe appealed for an LBW call off Pujara who remained unbeaten on 40 off 139 deliveries.
