India down at 36 for all, Aussies wins the first Test

Australia won the first Test match against India by 8 wickets. India batted first and scored 244 run and then Australian batting also collapsed 191 runs. Later while batting in the second innings Indian team dismantaled by the Australian bowling havocs.

Virat and company managed to score just 36 runs which is also the lowest in the history of Indian Test. India have gone six innings this year this without scoring 250 plus runs.

"Playing at the highest level there will always be collapses again and again. We have to accept our mistakes and understand what we need to work on. This is not club level cricket. There is pressure involved at different stages, and as batsmen we take a lot of pride in doing the job for the team," said Virat Kohli.

"We definitely don't feel like we are vulnerable to getting bowled out so cheaply and or vulnerable for a collapse on a regular basis. So I don't think it is anything alarming. We can very well sit here and make a mountain out of a molehill," he said.

"It is basically looking things in right perspective and knowing what we need to do as a team moving forward to Melbourne and how the structure needs to be built and plans need to be relaid rather than going too much into the past of what has happened and let it linger on in the future. That is not productive at all. The team does not think like that. You learn from your mistakes and move forward."

India will play more three Test and from the next Test starting from 26 in Melbourne, the team will be without the services of captain Virat Kohli and there are speculations that KL Rahul will take back his top spot and Shubhman Gill may open the innings with Mayank Agarwal
