Michael Clarke Lists Out "Major, Major Mistakes" By Australia, Admits He Isn't Surprised By Team's Struggles

Australia's wretched run on the tour of India so far has been filled with "major, major mistakes", reckons former captain Michael Clarke.

India vs Australia: Good technique vital on these tracks, says Rohit Sharma

embarrassment in Pat Cummins’ speech at post-match press conference was unmistakable. His team went down sweeping mindlessly to Indian spinners on Sunday. The sweep has been the go-to shot in spinning conditions since Matthew Hayden’s rampage in India in 2001.

We did well in the first innings at times, probably at times just overplayed that in the second.
