(Reuters) - Paceman Josh Hazlewood offered no excuses for Australia's laboured display in the field on day three of the fourth test against India after the hosts' vaunted attack was humbled by Washington Sundar and Shardul Thakur's batting defiance.

In what could prove the defining partnership of the cricket series, debutant Sundar (62) and two-test tail-ender Shardul Thakur (67) combined for a majestic 123-run stand on Sunday that dragged India back into the contest on a steamy afternoon at the Gabba.
