I'll be slightly more positive and say the aussies might get to 210 now . Aussie tail is far too long in these conditions, M marsh and wade are very poor players of spin.

The Indian spinners haven't bowled particularly well given the conditions

It's obvious India don't want to take any chances by preparing this wicket. Puffs of dust and crumbling and it's not even the end of day one... Not sure why they didn't just prepare excellent wickets like they did when they played England

When India last went to Australia wasn't it 100 after 100 for Smith and Warner on pretty flat pitches? India(and world cricket knows) stifle those two and Australia will most likely crumble

[csnew]

Brilliant set up to get M Marsh. Clueless against spin - rather have maxwell in the side

If someone can tell me why Mitch Marsh is relevant in Australian cricket I will buy you a pint.

I am confused too! If he bowled part time spin I could half understand...but he is medium pace isn't he?
They would be have been better playing a top order batsmen instead as I can't see his bowling being used, although I could be wrong.

Renshaw has been seriously impressive!

His selection is bizarre, it's not as though he went away and scored runs, I can't see any justification for it.

[csnew]

and there goes wade too! Surely they should give a young keeper a go now

Are you suggesting he was chosen on name alone......? 

[petehosk]

Well batted Renshaw! Sounds like he was undone by a decent ball.
He probably deserved to see the day through to the close...but he is gone now.
they will do well to see the day through now 

[Number4]

As I said previously Renshaw is exactly what Australia has needed for quite a while now

Saha's catch to get rid of O'Keefe was pretty special. Umesh Yadav 4/25 on a sandpit top bowling
