Smith fell lbw to Mohammad Shami after moving his series aggregate to 769 runs with four hundreds and two half-centuries in one match less than Bradman's 715 runs in five tests in 1947-48. In the first innings here, Smith's 110 matched the feats of Bradman (vs. South Africa in 1931-32) and South Africa great Jacques Kallis (vs. West Indies in 2003-04) in scoring four hundreds in four consecutive tests of a series. Earlier, India added 130 runs to its overnight total of 342-5, reducing the first-innings deficit to 97 runs. The third-day centuries of captain Virat Kohli (147) and Lokesh Rahul (110) were supplemented by some big hitting in the tail from Ashwin (50) and Bhuvneshwar (30).

"But fortunately or unfortunately, the game is very well poised now, you don't know which way it's going to go." Kohli added just seven runs to his overnight score before he clipped a Ryan Harris (1-71) delivery straight to Rogers at midwicket.
