Yashasvi Jaiswal's run out will be huge in the broader context of the fourth Test match as it also affected Virat Kohli's concentration, who till then looked good for a "masterclass", said Australia's batting hero Steve Smith on Friday.

"He [Kohli] was really disciplined today, he was leaving nicely, making the bowlers come to him a bit more and scoring well through the leg side and when we went short. So, yeah, I thought we were in for a bit of a masterclass there," Smith told reporters after Kohli was dismissed following Jaiswal's run out.

"It was obviously a really good partnership to break that one. And then obviously get the two more wickets. It was a huge last hour for us. So, yeah, that was a big play in the context of the day, I suppose," the former skipper said.
