What a disaster! Again the top order and the middle order batting collapsed. Australia domination continues on the second day as well. I have as of now zero hopes from Indian batters. Travis Head by the way has recorded his name in the history books. He became the first batter to score a century in World Test Championship followed by Smith. The third day would be crucial as we will be able to know where this match is headed. At the moment the road looks very bumpy and steep for India.
On the first day, we saw the dominance of Australia's batsmen. And on the second day too we saw the dominance of Australian bowlers. The IPL ended a few days ago. I thought Indian batsmen can play with responsibility in this match. Kohli has played very well in IPL. But no top-order batsman can collect more than 15 runs. Such poor batting was not expected from India's experienced top-order players. The Indian team is still behind by 318 runs. If Rahane doesn't play big innings I would say India will definitely lose this match.
