Paine's knock was key. Does anyone understand why Khawaja isn't liked? Surely he strengthens Australia's batting.

Khawaja isn't going to replace Labuschagne or Smith so realistically he only opens and Warner has the spot for a leftie opener nailed down. Burns is younger and had been in decent form in Tests previously, Pucovski is the next big thing and Wade knows he's a stopgap opener.

Rooty was right in classing India as good prep for the Ashes. Ah.

And Kohli's now not available for the rest of the series.

You would expect this is going to be a slaughter.

Indians could make a start by getting Gill in for Shaw and bringing in Rahul to replace Kohli. Not sure what else they could do at this point to address how dismal their batting was.

If India had caught all those chances Australia would have been all out for double figures aswell! Most of them were regulation at Test level.

I really dont think theres much between these attacks. The fielding however is a different story

Shami now ruled out of the rest of the tour with a fractured forearm.

So what changes do India need to make?

I think Gill in for Shaw...

Pant in for Saha

And obivously a seamer in place for the injured Shami

Forgetting that they need to replace Kohli as well? 😂

Oh dear Wade. That was one of the most brainless bits of cricket ive seen during session 1 of a Test Match!

Have to say thats a fantastic display from india after the 2nd innings capitulation in Adelaide. I watched the first session and Bumrah and Ashwin were impeccable.

11ml of grass left on the pitch by the groundsman. For anyone who doesnt know that is longer than most UK groundsmen cut their square! They've had lots of criticism there recently for dull tracks so hes obviously trying a different approach to get some help for the bowlers. There wasnt much help for the quicks but did spin big for Ashwin and Jadeja

Yes great comeback by India, Melbourne is usually a shirt front so credit to the groundsman for making a sporting track.
Australia will have their hands full against Ashwin next innings
