After Australia were bundled out for 177 on the first day, India were marching strong on day two until they lost a few wickets in quick succession.
Though India lost Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav cheaply, Rohit kept his calm and finished his 100.
A fiery spin bowling led by Ravindra Jadeja (5/47) bundled out Australia for just 177 on Thursday.
