Gotta tip your hat to Bumrah’s fitness, all day he was 140+ despite the extremely hot conditions. Shami and Ishant wilted badly in the final session

While somewhat different, his action looks a lot more economical than the others. Good player

Thought India would get blown over today - looked like it with the openers failing again. Kohli saving them again

A tail so could see a collapse if one of these two go.

Again - no reverse swing for the Aussies, bit different to what we saw last year with it reversing after 30-40 overs

Rahane added some gusto to the batting looked at ease scoring freely. India got issues at the top though. Both Rahul and Vijay look like walking wickets. They could well do with calling up another opener for Melbourne.

With regards to reverse swing the Indians didn't get any either. Outfields so far have been pretty lush

If Rohit is fit, India should open with Rohit. Current openers not scoring anyway and rohit opens in one day so its a chance india should risk.

Opening with one day players is never the best idea tbf

I agree but India have nothing to lose the way Vijay and Rahul are playing.  IMHO both Vijay and Rahul are done as openers in test for India.  I would like India to open with Parthiv Patel and Prithiv Shaw in Melbourne.  If Shaw is not ready open with Rohit.

It is obviously important to stress that Australia had found the ability to generate reverse swing through legitimate means every early in the innings across a couple of series, until one day they decided rather than operating within the rules they would cheat by altering the condition of the ball - albeit that the ball still swung as much and at the same stage of the innings as when they were doing it without tampering with the ball - and were promptly caught on what was absolutely the first time that they had ever decided to do that.  It is obviously completely coincidental that they haven't been able to generate that much reserve swing since

There's some talk of India calling up Shubman Gill for the third test. The 19 year old was player of the tournament in the u19 World Cup. Also he's currently 199* in the current round of Ranji trophy matches

The master reaches his 25th Test hundred, perhaps one of his absolute best.

Surely Renshaw, or maybe Burns.
Maxwell must be in with a chance of replacing Handscomb.
