Aus v India Test Series starting today with a Day Nighter in Adelaide.

Warner injured, so it looks like Joe Burns will hold his spot despite terrible form, with Matthew Wade opening with him.

Cameron Green to debut at 6 as an All Rounder.

Less than 2 runs an over, and we'll get 10 overs with a new ball under lights.

Kohli run out just before the new ball. 2 more wickets since.

That is just how Pujara plays. Good to get rid of him after only 160 balls.

They do that over here too. For years the Premier League was on Fox Sports, but a few years ago they got outbid for it by Optus, a phone company who started a new Sports service online which cost $15 a month if you weren't with Optus for your phone.

It's bloody annoying.

India already 8 down.

He's the 3rd best batsman in the team.

Wade is not an opener
Burns is finished
Head is not Test class
