Really? Beating Australia in Australia twice is a massive achievement and they did so with a ton of injuries.
I think that’s the type of feat a lot of people expect them to deliver consistently.. but they really haven’t replicated anything close to that Australia series win since they got it

Aussies collapsing... have lost 4 already today... 95/5 at the moment.

100 run lead coming into the 2nd innings suuuuure would've been handy

I was expecting us to collapse this morning but this is exceeding my expectations

We’re completely incapable and incompetent in these conditions.. I’d back Saudi Arabia’s top order over ours

India still has to bat and Australia really needs to somehow just get through those three all rounders, they’ve been the difference

Agree.. they have some seriously, ridiculously talented players but not enough trophies on the shelf to show for that

They only win bilateral series, haven't won anything since Dhoni and that was at home

I know what I was saying is that they don't win tournaments and they should be winning a lot more tournaments than they do, it's their primary sport, they have a population of well over a billion people.

They couldn't even make the Asian Cup final ffs, it was a tournament between Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and India.

I don't know who is fit and who isn't but they have to pick someone who can bowl express against the lower order of India, that was literally the reason we lost, couldn't get them out

Wasn’t the ‘homework gate’ series in 2013 regarded as our worst ever tour to India? It looks like a semi pleasant nightmare compared to the way the 2023 tour is tracking.. all thanks, of course, to our pathetic inability to bat

Cummins' plan is to be back by the third Test.

So many players leaving injured mid tour, media scrutiny and poor performances on the field. This is essentially what every touring team faces every time they come to Australia. Playing in away conditions should be tough. Just goes to show how mentally unprepared and how unskilled we are to play in foreign conditions.
