Border-Gavaskar Trophy: Australia need to overcome complex selection issues to fight in Delhi Test

India Today  

Australia will look to fight back after their massive defeat in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Nagpur, but it will be easier said than done when they resume their battle with India in Delhi on Friday. Those two knocks alongside Rohit Sharma's glorious hundred as India first took a 223-run lead and then bundled Australia out for their lowest Test score in this country. David Warner continued his poor run in Test cricket in India - in fact, he has done precious little recently apart from a gutsy double hundred against South Africa at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Australia had last won a Test series in India 19 years ago but rarely as an Australian team looked so much out of their depth on these shores. India are virtually invincible at home but they also won the last two Test series in Australia; that win in Brisbane came against all odds.
