Okay but Rohit Sharma is averaging 76 in India across 21 tests, when everyone else including his own colleagues are struggling to average even half of that lately. Rohit Sharma is the best batsman in Indian conditions of all time statistically, so that has to be a point of difference if we are comparing teams .

I think Smith cancels him out given that he averages 60 facing Ashwin/Jadeja.

cummins and hazlewood are great and are equal to bumrah and shami

starc serves trash often while being capable of nice spells every now and then. probably worse than siraj. maybe as good as umesh. lyon is nowhere as good as ash or jaddu.

but cummins being so ****ing good makes aus bowling attack marginally better than india's. but if there is limited seam/swing on offer i would back india to outbowl australia

What about Boland? He was excellent in this test mostly. And Starc > Siraj.

Anyways, back to the point, this series is all about Australian bats vs. Indian spin. If they can win that contest, they win the series. If they can't they are going to lose hard. There is no need to overcomplicate our analysis.

I am really afraid of Steve Smith . The last time I was afraid of an opposition batsman so much was Jayasuriya.
Anwar/Hayden/Flower/Martyn/Cook/Root all scored runs against India in the past . But these batsmen never gave me the fear .

Shri, can you tell me which of the Aussie bats you are mostly confident will fail this series please? Do you see no bat averaging more than 40?

smith, green and labu will be their best. will be surprised if anyone else average over 30. handscombwill probably be their 4th best but there will be daylight between first 3 bats and him
