Excellent Test match. India wins by 31 runs.

Hats off to Cummins, Lyon and Haz. Nearly pulled off a miracle.

I'm sick of the bowlers having to make up for the ineptitude of the top order, test after test, at the batting crease...

Mate we had them what 4/41 in the 1st dig?

This is the worst batting line-up we have selected since 2008/2009, or arguably 1995/1996 or perhaps even 1985/1986.

It's not like they are facing Garner/Holding/Croft/Marshall/Patterson/Ambrose et al?!

Why are so many top order batsmen in this country psychologically f&cking cripples?
How many blokes have had chances opening, or 3-5, and failed?
Look at how many caps have been handed out in the last few seasons?!

Probably time to give Doolan another shot, and it's a shame Renshaw can't get any momentum at the crease in Shield, to blunt the new ball either.

Siddle needs to come in too; still the best line/length bowler in the country.

I love Finchy, but perhaps the proof was in the pudding at test level?

2/130 (46). Is this the start of a collapse? Harris needs to keep going.

6/277 at stumps.

Paine 16*, Cummins 11*.

General comms consensus is the Aussies did well. Albeit, with a degree of disappointment, after such an excellent opening partnership.
