Talking Points:

  • Mitchell Starc: the pink ball master
  • Australia's bowling depth to the fore in day-night Test
  • India's selection hedges come back to bite them
  • Is it time to go back to picking five specialist bowlers? 
  • Travis Head: a right royal headache for India
  • Australia thrive on a pitch with true bounce
  • Has the Harshit Rana experiment run its course? 
  • The Nitish Reddy puzzle: he is offering lower-order runs with the bat but little with the ball
  • Ashwin's fine spell on a pitch that offered nothing for him
  • Pat Cummins' deadly bouncers
