Krejza hits back for Australia

A blistering half-century from Virender Sehwag got India off to a flying start but Australia turned the tables by claiming three quick wickets on the first day of the fourth Test of the Border-Gavaskar series in Nagpur.

Sehwag (66) and debutant Murali Vijay (33) put on 98 runs for the opening wicket in quick time after Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss, but Shane Watson severed the burgeoning partnership by disposing of Vijay for 33 just after the first drinks break.

Off-spinner Jason Krejza, playing his first match, then sent back Rahul Dravid for a two-ball duck and later had his second victim in Sehwag as India were reduced to 122 for three at lunch.

Sachin Tendulkar was unbeaten on 16 and with him was VVS Laxman, playing his 100th Test match, on four when lunch was taken.
