India vs Australia match predictions, fantasy tips, pitch reports and predicted eleven for IND vs AUS 4th Test
Currently, India and Australia are tied at 1-1 and the last Test match in Brisbane also ended in a draw due to rain. India gained the upper hand in the series by winning the first Test match by 295 runs at the Optus Stadium thanks to captain Jasprit Bumrah. However, Australia made a strong comeback in the series by cruising through the second Test with 10 wickets in the day-night match at Adelaide Oval.
Australia once again maintained their momentum in the third Test, with Travis Head and Steve Smith scoring a combined 445 runs, including hundreds. India had issues with the bat but did not lose the match thanks to rain and a tough battle from the lower-ranked players.
The focus now turns to the fourth Test match, which begins on December 26 in Melbourne.

India and Australia promotion report:
The fourth Test match between Australia and India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) is expected to feature a bowler-friendly pitch with a turf thickness of around 6mm, which should benefit fast bowlers, especially early in the match. While the surface helps speed things up, curator Matt Page suggests that it could also be used for batting once the new ball is negotiated, making for interesting contests between bowlers and batsmen.
