Worrying signs for Aussies
It's only a 2 day warm up game, but we've seen before how these matches can set the tone for a tour...
Australia crawled along at 2 per over with what you'd have to imagine is something close to the starting batting line up and only made it to 218.
Even more disturbing was the fact that a left arm orthodox spinner with 1 first class game under his belt took 5 wickets, including Ponting, Hayden and Clarke. Harbhajan Singh must licking his lips!
The fact that we bowled these guys out for 122 doesn't mean much. You'd imagine Tendulkar and co. will be a very different proposition

Todays play against the Board Presidents XI should add to the worries. The next gen Indian batting line up scored at 4 rpo and more through out the day against the full Aussie test bowling line up and hardly seemed troubled.
As an Indian fan, I loved the way Rohit Sharma & Virat Kohli played today and hope that the test XI does the same in the coming month. It's going to be a very tough tour for the Aussies.

And yet, a familiar failing - letting the last wicket put on nearly 100. Imagine if the Board President's XI had asked Aus to follow on!
