what about the mental edge re 36? Then again, India were looking to bat first too, so they can’t be too spooked about it

I think if India were in this position that would come into play for sure, but you can't guarantee they'll automatically have demons from one innings. That's more something you drive home when the pressure is on at 2/nothing for mine, not a reason to bowl first. Particularly because the MCG has been an absolute road recently.

Honestly this one looks much the same, just that little bit extra grass and some poor batting

I think too much is made of that

Could also fall into Indias favour if we think they will just crumble again

Different ball, different conditions, different deck
..

oh, for sure, if it’s obviously a ‘bat first’ pitch, then bat first...which this might be (as I say, India would have batted first too)

As it is, it’s India’s session.

Surprised that was green. Looked high given the bounce in the deck but I thought for sure umpires call.
