+xsurprisingly agressive from australia you want to pounce on any thing full to make sure they bowl short at perth because the ball will miss the stumps but we are playing at a lot we don't have to Finch is not opening to block. Play shots and put pressure back on the Indians. Just dont hand them your wicket Finchy.

Harris looks in fine fettle. No Ashwin to worry him later.

Yeah - and Yadav and Shami are more loose than these 2 with the radar.
Early advantage Australia.

Yardav has lost a bit of pace.
A few tours back he was bowling balls up to 149 kph.

+xYardav has lost a bit of pace. A few tours back he was bowling balls up to 149 kph. He still gets upto mid 140's... But he bowls so much crap imo... Just sprays it around with no control... Easily the weakest of the Indian 5 seamers...

We aren’t too many short of an opening partnership of 50!

I can’t believe India have gone in without spinner Jadeja!
A four pronged pace attack from them is perplexing.

But day 1 - grass on the pitch - would you rather be bowling a 4th quick or a spinner? I think India got the roles right - just piocked the wrong bowler in Yadav over Kumar...

Just because there is a bit of grass doesn't mean spinning isn't effective, Lyon had a field day here for NSW

The monotony of a four pronged right arm pace attack. India often play three spinners at home.
They can’t change the rhythm of the game.

Jadeja has been outstanding in India.

+xPaddlesJadeja has been outstanding in India. Indeed. He bowls quickly with side spin and drives it straight into the pitch... And that pays dividends big time in Asia even from day 1... Less so anywhere else...

Because Mishra, Ash, Jadeja, Kuldeep types are not giving the ball away in a dustbowl...
