Former Indian opening batter Sunil Gavaskar observed that the hosts let the pitch overpower them during their defeat to Australia in the third Test in Indore. The 73-year-old also lamented the lack of runs from the top-order batters in the first two Tests coming back to bite in Indore. Australia's three-pronged spin-bowling attack left India dazed as they skittled them for 109 and 163 in two innings.
