We had stalwarts too big for their shoes, and selectors looked at past records. They forgot on quick wickets, their reflexes will fail. We had also no plan B

:-)... That was "last time".., last time we also won Perth test. This time we almost converted it to a 2 day game. ;-)
Rightly so, chance to beat Indian team thru Media apart from test matches, they are taking revenge.
In fact its sorry state of affairs for Team India to have surrendered so meekly without a fight.
Most of the senior players are themselves to blame for wrong shot selection, and threw their wickets away, as if it is a gift to Australia.
Gambhir has proved time and again he cannot play for raising deliveries. Sehawag has no patience to stay for some time and then get runs, he gets so frustrated and throws his wicket away to any ordinary delivery.
Dravid though fights, getting bowled easily, may be due to faster phased wickets and did not adjust to seaming tracks of late.
Laxman less said the better, time for good bye.
Sachin should have ensured he stays for longer time, but got out to ordinary deliveries from Storc,
Dhoni has forgotten batting, so nothing much to comment on his batting, he cannot how ever bat in seaming conditions.
So there is no batsman worth the name in India, standing against good bowlers and score runs and face them positively?,
unfortunate, BCCI is short sighted, cannot differentiate between test cricket, ODI and useless IPL,
Its time BCCI wakes up at least now, realize which player is categorized for test, ODI and T20s.
Let dhonis, Sachins, Sehwag, Gambhr satisfy their cricket thru IPL , leave the test cricket for genuine talented people.
Aussie spectators should sue Indian cricket team and BCCI including aussie cricket board for the dud show for which they would have paid through their nose..... 5 days match getting over in 3 - 4 days..... are aussies playing world champions????
