With regular rain interruptions on Day 4, India began their play at 51/4 on the scoreboard. KL Rahul anchored the innings with a gritty 84 off 139 balls. Despite losing wickets from one end, Ravindra Jadeja provided support with an inspiring half-century. His partnership helped hold the Indian batting line-up together, but it remains to be seen if they can maintain control and recover from their precarious position.

India remains 45 runs away from avoiding follow-on thanks to a 67-run partnership. However, Australia still holds a strong grip on the Test match. On Day 4, Ravindra Jadeja was seen with a customized bat featuring “Marwadi Stallions” engraved on it, reflecting his love for horses and his collection of four horses at his farmhouse in Gujarat.

Ravindra Jadeja’s farmhouse is home to a variety of animals, such as rabbits, pigeons, fish, and dogs. To pay tribute to his love for animals, Jadeja walked out at Gabba with a special bat engraved with Kesar, a mix of Marwadi and Kathiawadi breeds, one of his prized horses. These gestures showcased his deep connection to his farm and his passion for animals.
