Man, Jaddu is the only leftie in the XI. Sure makes SoK's job easier, huh? Can get into a rhythm easily.

Monty has been guiding SOK and India gave him just the kind of pitch Monty played on in 2012. What f***s. Was never expecting such a pitch after 9 decent pitches this whole season.

Just like green seaming pitches narrow the gap between two teams. Same applies to this.Plus Australia literally trained for a pitch like this in Dubai.. given their results in Sri Lanka.. whereas India have not played on anything like this since 2015.

Maybe sense will prevail and India will stick to normal wickets, where Toss will have less of a say and where India's strength - the batting -can have hope of prospering but maybe they have been mentally scar'd by this..

Now India has seen SOK properly, won't be easy next test for him.. if pitch is a good one.

I think you (India) have to play O'Keefe as an extremely slow seamer rather than play for the turn. I'm hoping India bounce back after this.

Why does everyone seem to be under the impression that producing a road is how to beat Australia?

Australia aren't generally too bothered when it comes to batting on a road...

Mate, if India wasn't to dish up flat roads to this Australian team, knock yourselves out.

Starc and Haze will take the pitch out of the equation anyway. One will use line and length and the other will use pace to get his wickets. Might just have to just accept that these ****s are better on current form, thanks to their preparation.

This performance has also made sure that there has not been too much stress put on Starc's body. Vital, in a long tour.
