I was looking at the test bowling averages for Indian bowlers:

Jasprit Bumrah: 19.42
Mohammed Siraj: 30.87
Prasidh Krishna: 26.00
Mohammed Shami: 27.71
Shardul Thakur: 28.38
Ravindra Jadeja: 24.10
Ravichandran Ashwin: 24.00
Washington Sundar: 25.20
Mukesh Kumar: 25.57
 
Out of these bowlers, Siraj is the only one with a >30 average. I am not sure how he is able to find an automatic spot in the playing XI every time. Perhaps close relations with Kohli and Rohit helps.
Maybe back home Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli can be held accountable for the air of inclusion in Mohammad Siraj's squad. A bowler must be held accountable for scoring runs at an economic rate of over 30 which does not reflect the bowling power and skill of a bowler. Today's match is a definite loss and Australia will win if they can add 25 runs in the conditions of the Test so far. Not only will India's bowlers be held accountable for their bowling, but some of the senior players, including Virat Kohli, will also be held accountable for their batting.
