MELBOURNE: Not enough runs on the board and dropping a number of catches led to Australia’s eight-wicket defeat in the second Test match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, said Australia skipper Tim Paine. “India are bowling well. They have been extremely disciplined. We haven’t really been able to get partnerships together. But from what I have seen watching Marnus and Steve Smith, this is not the first time. teams have targetted their stumps. That happens every single Test match. Having said that these guys are executing it better. Someone like Steve in particular hasn’t been able to get in yet. Once he gets in, he will find a way as he always does, the rest will follow suit and need to,” said Paine while speaking to the media on Tuesday.
