India vs Australia: Aussies' attacking approach in Delhi doesn’t really mask their vulnerabilities

Firstpost  

Australia came out with a positive mindset as they looked to attack the Indian bowlers, hoping to set the tone in Delhi ‘Attack is the best form of defence’, right? The Delhi track, which Pat Cummins said on the pre-match day his team is expecting it to play like Nagpur — with turn on offer on first day, was placid at best in comparison. Ravichandran Ashwin’s Guile Marnus Labhuschagne looked in ominous touch with a breezy start to his innings and the attacking mindset was very much visible. Khawaja played one reverse sweep too many and perished to a stunning one–hander from Rahul while Alex Carey walked back edging one to slip off Ashwin to hand the seasoned bowler his 100th wicket of Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
