IND vs AUS 4th Test: Virat Kohli hit a half-century on the third day of the fourth Test against Australia, becoming the fifth Indian batsman to reach 4000 runs at home.

His 59 not out, along with Shubman Gill (128) and Cheteshwar Pujara's 42, aided India's total of 289/3 in 99 overs, putting the hosts in a good position for the second game on Saturday. Kohli passed the 4000-run mark in his 50th Test at home.

Tendulkar leads the list with 7216 runs in 94 Tests, followed by Rahul Dravid (5598 runs in 70), Sunil Gavaskar (5067 runs in 65), and Sehwag (4656 runs in 52 Tests) in that order.
