This Australian side does not have the fire to Win a match. Keeping wickets was terrible. Most of the games won by India was one sided with no thrill finish. Aussies lost no doubt but yes they never gave up! Pitch and conditions excuse just doesn't hold good.
Australia has just lost thier dignity from cricket in recent time. they are playing very disappointing way. in this series, they never seemed that they were a strong team. especially their batsman showed terrific bad performance. I am sure though bowlers performed more or less well they surely missed Stark and Hazlewood. if both could play then result would have been different.

Like all other teams Australia also getting many new players because all those old best players already retired. It is the common thing all teams need to face when their experienced players not there in the team. Also, most of these young players play more short format cricket nowadays so that consistency is not there just come and hit. Just look at SL team now, they also got all new players and their performance is very very bad.
Well they are doing well in bowling but batting isn't upto the mark right now , I think they can come back to their winning form if they try more all-rounders like Stoinis .

Indian pitches are mostly supporting for spin bowling, and Australian batsman is not so good on these pitches, and that's why we see most of their batsmen failed to score big runs. But if you notice 4th match whether played was a flat pitch, and that's why Australian batsman can manage to score good runs and won the match. Even Indian team goes to Australia they will also face similar issues to bat on fast and bouncy tracks.
This issue for not only these two its for all teams because home teams take advantage and prepare pitches for supporting own teams ICC doing many reforms they need to check this as well and bring system that all test and one day pitches must support both teams this can bring more interest for fans also because this will bring more entertainment for them

BCC (Indian cricket board) is worlds richest cricket board and I don't think ICC can put pressure on them because ICC is earnings are more from where ever Indian team is playing cricket. But anyway if India goes to Australia then they have to face the same situation like what Australia as faced in India. For this, you should develop a skill to play both on fast and spin pitches instead blaming on pitches.

This has been old debate and will be continue in the future as well. There is nothing wrong to prepare the pitches according to the requirements of the host countries , opponent should be ready to accept the challenges to adopt and perform in the different playing conditions.
