IND vs AUS 3rd Test Day 1 Session 1

India tumble bad in the first session. They end up losing 7 quick wickets in the first session of play as fans continue to question the turning track on Day 1 of the 3rd Test! The hosts are 84/7 at lunch! 

@BCCI
Its a test match. Not a 1 or 2 day event. Have some respect to cricket. Home advantage is all fine but this is honestly disgusting!!! #INDvsAUSTest #Indoretest #Pitch

This is a terrible pitch for Day 1 of a Test Match… A turn of 4.8° in the 1st hr itself with ball bouncing unevenly is looking ugly…

To add to that this Indian Team keeping up the consistency of poor batting on a turning pitch, since 2015 …

Absolutely poor#BGT2023

Such a spin taking pitch in the first session on the first day is killing the romance of Test cricket.
It will be very disappointing that this test will not be able to take place even for 3 days. @BCCI#IndvsAus #BGT2023
