India were set to face 21 overs before stumps on the second day in
Adelaide after Michael Clarke declared Australia's innings closed at 7
for 604.
The Australians added 35 runs after tea for the loss of no
wickets and Clarke called his men in with Brad Haddin unbeaten on 42 and
Ryan Harris on 35.
By batting on after tea, Clarke made India start a sixth session in the
field, and the end of Australia's innings could not come quick enough
for India on another day of Australian domination during which Clarke
and Ricky Ponting both posted double-centuries.
Their 386-run
partnership was the fourth-highest of all time for Australia in Test
cricket, and all three of the stands above them on the list featured Don Bradman.
