Paceman Peter Siddle claimed his seventh five-wicket haul to help Australia dismiss India for 499 in their first innings late on day four of the third Test.

India took a first-innings lead of 91 with about 21 overs of play remaining on Sunday.

Siddle took only two wickets in the first two Tests but showed his trademark grit on a flat Mohali pitch to claim 5-71 off 29.1 back-breaking overs.

Shikhar Dhawan (187) and Murali Vijay (153) hit centuries in a 289-run stand, having resumed on Sunday on 0-283.

India went to lunch at 3-384.

Offspinner Nathan Lyon struck to remove Dhawan in the second over of the day.

The Delhi-born Dhawan – whose wife Ayesha Mukhurjee and their two children live in Melbourne – produced the sixth-highest score by a player on his Test debut and the highest by an Indian.

India’s double-century maker from the second Test Cheteshwar Pujara fell for one, lbw in a dubious decision to Siddle.

Occasional legspinner Steve Smith struck a key blow in the final over before lunch when Sachin Tendulkar was caught at bat-pad for 37. It was Smith’s fourth Test wicket and first since July 2010.

India moved ahead of Australia’s 408 in the 101st over, which was the last with the old ball.

Left-armer Starc’s inswingers claimed two lbws to remove Vijay and MS Dhoni (four) in the first five balls with the new cherry.

Siddle dismissed Ravindra Jadeja (eight) and Ravi Ashwin (four) in consecutive overs as India slumped to 7-431.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar (18) was caught behind to Moises Henriques shortly after tea, ending a 61-run partnership with Kohli. Siddle took the last two wickets to fall.

Virat Kohli was unbeaten on 67. India lead the four-match series two-nil. Even a draw for India would allow MS Dhoni’s side to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
