Boxing Day Test: As the stage is set for an epic climax to the Boxing Day Test between India and Australia, former Aussie all-rounder Steve O'Keefe opined that India will not be looking for a draw and try hard to win the crucial fourth Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on the final day of the encounter.

India pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah and fellow pacer Mohammed Siraj dismantled the Aussies top and middle order, but the hosts fought hard on the back of Marnus Labuschagne (70) and Pat Cummins (41).

Tailenders Nathan Lyon (41 not out) and Scott Boland (10 not out) extended Australia’s lead to 333 at stumps on Sunday. The duo will resume on Day 5, having already put on a 55-run stand for the final wicket.
