You'll likely win at home - England and RSA are the two that seem to be more competitive in India, forwhatever reason - really interested to see how the Poms go
Tosses were huge, we competed relatively well for a while but as always against the big boys we have brain farts that last a session or a day, the 2nd innings in the last test looked like we'd had enough TBH, it was disappointing - but then we were so far out of it anyway, so who knows.
Williamson is in a tough spot - regularly coming in early and as with Crowe in earlier generations pretty much the sole focus of oppositions - he'll still score runs because he is a special player, but we've seen Hazelwood (and the Australian attack) and now Aswhin (and the Indians) - implement clear plans to get at him, as in reality they don't often have to worry about anyone else- Guptill, Ronchi and Nicholls are rubbish, Latham can be stubborn, Watling is in bit of a slump, and Taylor continues to flatter to deceive
