# Ravindra Jadja (63) posted his highest score against Australia, eclipsing the 54 not out at Ranchi in this month.
# Jadeja's second fifty vs Australia is his seventh in Tests. For the first time, he has recorded six fifties in a season in Tests.
# Jadeja and Saha were involved in a stand of 96 - the second highest seventh-wicket partnership for India vs Australia in the present series behind the 199 between Pujara and Saha at Ranchi in the third Test.
# Jadeja's impressive record as an all-rounder in a season in Tests is quite rare. He became the third all-rounder to score 500 runs or more and bag 50 wickets or more - his aggregate as a batsman being 556 (ave.42.76) and 71 wickets (ave.22.83) in 13 Tests - the first two all-rounders were Kapil Dev in 1979-80 and Mitchell Johnson in 2008-09.
# Nathan Lyon's fifth five-wicket haul vs India is his ninth in Tests.
# Lyon's wicket-aggregate of 64 (ave. 33.01) in 14 tests is the second highest by a spinner against India next only to Muttiah Muralitharan's 105 (ave.32.61) in 22 Tests.
# David Warner has been a mediocre performer in the series, failing to manage even 200 runs - his aggregate being 193 (ave.24.12) - the least number of runs scored by him in a four-Test series. His only other instance of less than 200 runs in a four-Test series being 195 (ave.24.37) vs India in 2012-13.
# Steven Smith has amassed 499 runs (ave. 71.28) in the four-Test series - the second highest tally by an Australian skipper in a Test series vs India behind the 594 (ave. 59.40) in 12 innings (six Tests) by Kim Hughes in 1979-80.
# Four times, Australia have failed to face 150 overs, losing all 20 wickets in a Test match against India - Melbourne 1977-78, Mumbai 2004-05, Perth 2007-08 and Dharamsala 2016-17. Overall, there have been 47 instances of such a happening in Tests vs India.
