I'm trying to be an important poster.

It was a poor shot by Kohli given the circumstances. Didn't properly account for the bounce and movement.

Need a Hanuman to lift up India out of this ditch.
But they benched him.

It's like if Mark David Chapman emptied the rest of his gun into Lennon after he was already dead.
Just distasteful

Yea okay amazing catch but awful drive by Kohli
All you have to do is just see off the opening session, let the ball go soft, get the bowlers into their second and third spells, and you're good. This #intent stuff means they're trying to pull off attacking strokes when the ball isn't there to be hit. Completely unnecessary but also completely predictable. Thinking alpha batting is hitting boundaries at every half chance, not playing the ball on its merits and taking their time to settle in

Yeah but you haven't been watching the entire session *****, so you won't have seen how good the bowling has been. They've tested the outside edge regularly and mixed it up with short stuff which India has handled in its inherently Beta way. The wide one is tossed in to tempt the very shots they've played on the back of excellent bowling leading up to it. Add that to a bit of bounce and movement and you get the edge.

I get the feeling we are going to see that Pat Cummins Gillette ad a practically infinite amount of times

That was a beta hook shot. Lucky Starc lifts the ball slowly off the surface.

I saw all the play till the second dismissal, haven't since then
The bowling has been good but it hasn't been the good balls taking wickets and that's disappointing. The bowler's have just laid traps the the Indian batsmen have waltzed right into.
You expect better from professional batsmen at the highest level. This is just an abject effort, but it's basically standard for teams batting overseas now days.
