Bengaluru, Mar 5 : India's shocking run of poor form continues in the second Test at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy stadium during second match of the four Test series. Failed completely by bat, Indian spin bowlers R Ashwin and R Jadeja failed to get any breakthrough in Australian innings.

Looks like, pitch assisted only Austrlalian spinners as second time in the series Indian batsmen failed to capitalise the pitch advantage. 189 was indeed poor run, looking at the Australian opening batsmen's confidence, Australia is all planning to put mighty lead in the second innings.

As per Smith's plan everything worked good for Kangaroos except the toss in the second Test. Abhinav Mukund, who plays a Test match after the gap of six years could not show resistance more than six balls. He got LBW out off Starc first ball he faced.

Poojara out just few seconds before the lunch, day 1. But there were hopes this time on Kohli but error of judgement forced Kohli to go back to the pavillion. Kohli was under pressure and looked like he did not have the same confidence that he had in previous series against Bangladesh and England.

But full credit to Australia, as they played mind game very well.

Only KL Rahul the Bangalore lad shown great consistency, but due to lack of partners at the end of innings he had to go for rash shot, got out for 90.

Only Karan and Rahul shown the maturity in Indian batting line-up. Confident from his previous triple hundred Karan started well, but stumped by wade when he was 26.

Let's see how Indian bowlers will control the situation on Day. First session will tell you which side match will turn!
