Snapshot for day 4 of the fourth Test

A snapshot of day four of the Test cricket series decider between Australia and India in Dharamsala.

AUSTRALIA V INDIA, 4TH TEST AT A GLANCE

STATE OF PLAY - India finished 2-106 in their second innings, winning the Test by eight wickets and the four-Test series 2-1.

MAN OF THE DAY - Ajinkya Rahane. Came to the crease after two wickets fell in an over and showed strong leadership as stand-in skipper, belting a quick-fire 38 off 27 balls.

KEY STAT - This was the fourth occasion ever that India have won a Test series after losing the series opener.

KEY MOMENT - Rahane cracked consecutive bouncers from Pat Cummins for six, calming any nerves in his dressing room and ensuring there would be no late twist in the series.

BEST QUOTE - "I've been pretty intense throughout this series. I really wanted to do well for my team and lead from the front with my performance. At times I've probably been in my own little bubble and let my emotions slip a little bit, so I apologise for that," Australia skipper STEVE SMITH admits he got carried away at various points in the series.
