    Pant drops a catch. Not the strongest with the gloves is he.

        And again. Pant might be a decent batsman, but his keeping is substandard at this level.

              Steve Smith will be chuffed - good platform for whenever he has to come in.

                      Maybe BUT:

                      • Conditions haven't helped. I haven't seen the whole day's play but there isn't as much assistance off the deck as Melbourne.
                      • Yadav not being there is also a factor
                      • The openers being openers helps. Not one guy with zero form and the other middle order batsmen who looks like he's on speed.

                            @NTA he looks to have a bit of the Matt Henry's about him - too many loose balls.

                              @KiwiMurph real circuit breaker for Australia - Pucovski cut him a couple of times to bring up 50 and Smith also drove him a bit.

                              Now Loose Bus Change is getting on board as well. Think the aggression factor has gone up a bit - wait out Bumrah and Ashwin and pick on the new guys.

                                Didn’t come on at a great time. Two set batsmen, not a lot on offer with the wicket.

                                He got Will with a very good ball though.

                                  Poor captaincy from Rahane today. He left bowling Jadaja until far too late, while leaving Ashwin on half the day to bowl a ton of innocuous deliveries, which when they did turn, were generally too straight.

                                    Good debut innings from the mini Honey Badger.

                                    The Aussies really know how to heap pressure on young talent with the camera fixed on him during the rain delays and comments of "biggest interest since Ricky Ponting's debut"

                                      He's not waited long at all.

                                          Tho there was an amusing quip Ponting mentioned about seeing him as a 12yo for the first time, loading up the bowling machine for him, and watching him cream a cover drive.
