    So, like most of the series apart from what the scoreline tells you, the first day of the Boxing-Day Test is also been pretty even. 259-5, Australia's score after winning the toss. It's been hard to score, its been a slow wicket. It's been a good pitch to bat on, but because of the slowness of the pitch; it became difficult for Australia to score some runs against inexperienced bowling line-up of India. India had Australia six down at the Gaba in the first innings, but, it's close to the best they have bowled in the innings, they have done a good job and there is a chance of winning the match for India. It's a hard-working wicket whether you're a Bowler or a Batsmen you need to show a bit more patience, interestingly, both teams have done that today. Muhammad Shami came back very well, after the morning session, He picked up couple of important wickets, He's been the pick of the bowlers today.
    Steven Smith has just 20 odd Test Matches, which is very very early to be a savior. .:p 1000 runs in 2014 which is a phenomenal for someone who's starting his test career. Shaun Marsh never looked in any trouble today, it's almost like He had a brain explosion there and again himself and Shane Watson are probably fighting for places, He would have been disappointed in that shot for sure.  Since Ricky Ponting has stopped batting at number 3 average of Australia's number 3 batsmen is 28.47, its the worst amongst all test teams in that period. Also, there are 14 ducks by Australia's number 3 batsmen after Ricky Ponting's retirement, most by any test playing nation, of course.
