He averages 66 in Asia and 31 outside Asia. So just facts

Numbers do change over time. Today he did play a innings that were required from the other top batsman like rahul, vijay kohli and rohit. Patience is the key regardless. That is why I love test cricket.

Absolutely no excuses for the way the top order threw away their wickets. Chasing deliveries outside off stump! Kohli needs to practice leaving that rather than handling the short pitched deliveries. Vihari never stood a chance getting picked for the first test once Rohit was picked in the squad. BCCI should stop giving Vijay chances at the top and send Rahul back to Ranji and India A tours to get runs under his belt.

They'll definitely struggle if you sack the whole team!

Not sure India should be too pessimistic just yet.  They have a good bowling attack for what should be the most seam friendly deck they are likely to play on.  Plus it remains to be seen how the surface will play in the fourth innings after a few days baking in the heat

Ah, how the cricket world love to find a negative to trump any success 🙄
Love it, imagine in the Indian dressing room there's probably a lot more 'well done Chet you hero, bailed us out again' than '(No Swearing Please) if you can score a ton then it must be a flat one'..!

The Aussies certainly got the wood on King Kohli in recent times. 49 runs in last 6 innings since that staggering series in 2014. Cummins have bowled 4 deliveries at Kohli in Tests and got him twice.

They have no option but to select him

Someone said earlier wait till both sides bat on here - Aussies 7 down. Head’s saved them a little.
India again allowing lower order partnerships.

Very unaustralian wicket, not sure what to make of it. Seems difficult to play shots and two paced

The standard of wickets in Australia has dropped through the floor in recent years. Plenty of articles about it last summer.

The WACA and Gabba have both lost alot of the pace they were renowned for.

Adelaide has become hit and miss - wasn't too bad a wicket last year until the lights came on then it was nigh on impossible to bat on.

Melbourne is lifeless, there was talk of sacking the groundsman after Cooks double ton.

Only Sydney retains its character of a good wicket that takes spin later on

Remains to be seen what the Optus can offer up

The discipline of Bumrah and Ishant was fantastic, rarely you see Indian fast bowlers thriving into their third/fourth spells. Bumrah in particular was rapid, clocked in the high 140s. Kohli's India are definitely more fitter, usually India wilted late in the day not this time. Still probably should've played Kumar instead of Shami

This has become a common phenomenon with Shami...bowls badly in the first innings and then turns it around in the second innings.
