To my mind this is one of the worst batting performances I have ever seen by Australia. There have been instances when we have been bundled out for fewer runs, but usually due to conditions or great bowling. In this case, the bowling has just been tight and we are batting ourselves out of the game...
Not wanting to diminish the disciplined bowling of the Indians, but I don't view their attack as one that should cause this much trouble for a reasonable test batting lineup. Some of the dismissals have been absolutely terrible. Take Marsh - his mode of dismissal is unforgivable given the role he has been selected to play (the experienced older hand). It really is time for him to go!
