Bad light and intermitted rain led to substantial loss of play with only 25.2 overs bowled on day four. But play didn't resume at all once the scheduled tea break was over, as bad light hampered proceedings once again. It couldn't commence at the scheduled early 10 am local time start due to bad light and wet conditions from overnight heavy rain. Australia were reduced to 236-6 at stumps on day three when bad light had stopped play. India have an unassailable 2-1 series' lead after winning the first Test in Adelaide by 31 runs and the third Test in Melbourne by 137 runs.
