Australia Live Score 3rd Test, Day 1: India find themselves in a spot of bother after opting to bat first in the third Test against Australia in Indore on Wednesday. The hosts lost seven wickets in the opening session and mustered 84 runs before umpires called for Lunch. The proceedings started with Matt Kuhnemann removing both Indian openers Rohit Sharma (12) and Shubman Gill (21) cheaply, following which Nathan Lyon cleaned up Cheteshwar Pujara for 1. India then lost Ravindra Jadeja for 4, while Shreyas Iyer failed to open his account. Virat Kohli was then trapped LBW for 22 by Todd Murphy. KS Bharat was packed for 17 as R Ashwin joined Axar Patel in the middle. Heading into the contest both the sides made a few changes.
