Dharamsala, Mar 26 (IBNS): Nathan Lyon picked up four quick wickets to put India under pressure on the second day of the fourth Test match as the home side trailed Australia's first innings score by 52 runs here on Sunday.

After bowling out Australia for 300 runs in their first innings, Indian batsmen came out with the determination to score big in the match and put the visitors under challenge.

Skipper Ajinkya Rahane (46), Cheteshwar Pujara (57) and KL Rahul (60) contributed with their willows but it was a charismatic spell by Lyon which brought the pressure back on India.

Lyon dismissed took two crucial wickets of Rahane and Pujara before they could further create much damage.

Karun Nair (5) and R Ashwin (30) were his other two dismissals.

Wriddhiman Saha (10) and R Jadeja (16) are currently at the crease and will resume proceedings from Monday.
