MELBOURNE:

"An unbelievable hundred. I mean this hundred will be talked about and remembered for a very, very long time. Boxing Day century, I think he'll forever remember it as well," said Washington, unable to stop praising the knock.

Reddy's 105 not out and his 127-run stand for the eighth wicket with Washington (50) took India to 358 for 9 on the third day of the fourth Test against Australia at the MCG, which now could meander towards another draw.
