Peter Siddle took five wickets as Australia bowled India out for 272 before extending their lead to 382 runs by the close of play on third day of the fourth test on Thursday.
Virat Kohli upstaged his more esteemed team mates with his team's first century of the series but was dismissed for 116 to bring an end to the Indian first innings an hour before close with the tourists well behind Australia's 604 for seven declared.
Australia, already 3-0 up in the series, decided to embark on their second innings despite having the option of forcing the Indians to bat again but quickly lost their top order to stand at 50 for three at stumps.
