Melbourne, Dec 29: India declared their second innings at 106 for eight after an hour of batting on Day 4, thus setting a target of 399 for Australia to win the third Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground here on Saturday.

Resuming the day at 54/5, the overnight duo of Agarwal and stumper Rishabh Pant (33) started well before Cummins, who took four wickets on Day 3, broke through the defences of Agarwal to claim his fifth victim.
