David Warner got the hosts' second innings underway as he produced a total of 40 runs before being removed lbw by Ravi Ashwin.

Chris Rogers (33) and Shane Watson (15) - both currently unbeaten - helped boost the total up to 155 before the break as Steven Smith's side boast a further nine wickets still in play.

Australia lead the series 2-0.
