2 Number of five-fors for Nathan Lyon against India. The only Australian spinners to take more five-wicket hauls against India are Richie Benaud (5) and Ashley Mallett (3). Warne has one five-wicket haul against India.
46 Years since an Australian spinner picked up a five-for against India at home. Lyon returned figures of 5 for 134 during India's first innings. The last Australian spinner to do this was Bob Simpson at Sydney in 1968, when he had figures of 5 for 59.
6 Number of hundreds scored by David Warner in 2014. The most hundreds scored by an Australian in a calendar year is seven, by Ricky Ponting in 2006. The overall record is nine, by Mohammad Yousuf in 2006.
5 Number of centuries for Warner in his last seven third-innings of a Test. His sequence including this innings is as follows; 124, 83*, 112, 16, 115, 145 and 102.
5 Number of batsmen who have scored two hundreds in the same Test twice in a year. David Warner scored 145 and 102 in this Test. Earlier this year, he scored 135 and 145 against South Africa at Cape Town. The other batsmen to do this are Clyde Walcott (1955), Sunil Gavaskar (1978), Aravinda de Silva (1997) and Ricky Ponting (2006).
5 Number of years since an Australian opener made 1000 Test runs in a year. David Warner reached this mark during Australia's second innings. The last Australian opener to do this was Simon Katich in 2008 and 2009.
95 Runs conceded by Karn Sharma during Australia's second innings. He also conceded 143 runs in the first innings. If Sharma had conceded five more runs in the second innings, he would have been the first Indian bowler to conceded 100-plus runs in both innings on Test debut.
20 Ducks scored by Ishant Sharma in Tests, the second most by an active cricketer - only Zaheer Khan (29) has more.
24 Runs conceded by Karn Sharma in the 64th over, the second most expensive by an Indian spinner since 2001. Harbhajan Singh conceded 27 runs against Pakistan at Lahore in January 2006.
11 Number of times that India have batted 100-plus overs in Adelaide, the second-most for them at any away Test venue. India have played out 100-plus overs 14 times at Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain.
