India’s reply to Australia’s 474 in the 4th Test was led by Nitish Reddy, who scored a historic 105* on Day 3 in Melbourne. Coming in at 191/6, Reddy’s 105 off 176 balls, including a 127-run partnership with Washington Sundar (50), helped India avoid the follow-on and reduce the deficit to 116 runs by stumps. Despite a resilient effort, heavy rain led to the early end of play. India finished Day 3 at 358/8, still trailing Australia by 116 runs, with hopes of continuing their fight tomorrow.
