Despite Smith and Johnson's departure, India's headache was far from over. Another tailender - Mitchell Starc - stepped to score a fifty. He and Nathan Lyon (23) added 56 for the ninth wicket and followed it up with a 51-run stand for the final wicket with debutant Josh Hazelwood (32). Australia finished on 505, 97 runs ahead.
