The International Cricket Council has prohibited the Australian opener from wearing shoes with symbols of equality and freedom, notably a dove emblem and an olive branch, throughout the Test series against Pakistan.
India's spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja who have been lethal throughout the series probed the Aussie batters but were unable to produce wickets.
The visitors started well in the first half before the Indian bowlers struck twice. Ravichandran Ashwin got the first wicket while Shami scalped the second.
At the end of the day's play, Aussies lead India by 47 runs. Australia resumed their innings at 71/1 after tea.
There will be a massive showdown between Warner, Smith, Lyon and their respective sides in the Sydney Smash on Saturday at the SCG.
The 33-year-old Khawaja was recently left out of the Australia's annual list of contracted players after he was dropped midway through last year's Ashes.
On their previous tour Down Under, India had won a Test series in Australia for the first time.
Khawaja said the lack of quality tweakers could leave the nation exposed like it was after Shane Warne's retirement.
Khawaja's omission was one of the biggest talking points when CA announced its central contact list for 2020/21.
