New Delhi: For the first time since India's home season began against New Zealand, Virat Kohli's men look troubled in a Test match. The entire credit for India's present situation goes to Australian bowlers, especially Steve O'Keefe, who grabbed his best figures of 6/35, and proved that on such wickets even overseas spinners can do well.
India's dramatic collapse from 94/4 to 105/10 was shell-shocking, with many statisticians claiming this to be India's worst ever from that stage. India's performance can be judged with the fact that even skipper Virat Kohli failed to leave his mark in the game – going for a duck to Mitchell Starc.
