Such a disaster on one's home ground is somewhat worrying. But it is very clear that the pitch condition does not work in favor of the batsmen. Australian team also don't got too many runs either. However, Indian Test captain Rohit Sharma feels that the Indian batsmen should have done better. However, the lack of consistent performance of some players is the big reason for the defeat in the first Test. In the first innings Pujara, Ravindra Jadeja, Shreyas Iyer and Ashwin no one could do well. Again in the second innings a batting disaster of Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja and Srikar Bharat failed to add more runs to the team's total score.

India has won first two matches and so far the pitches are extremely tilted towards bowlers. The Third test almost took 2 days to finish while first 2 also were completed in 3 days only. Wickets falling all around. Hopefully we will see same action in forth and final test also.

I wrote this after Australia lost first test match and this myth has once again proved to be true. Australia will not be able to win this series but can they be able to draw this series?

Edit: I read this interesting fact on ABC sports Facebook page and thought it's worth sharing

"The bad news continues, as Australia have never won a series after losing the first Test in anything other than five-Test series."
