AUS vs IND WTC Final: As India seemed to struggle against a dominant Australia in the first two days of the World Test Championship (WTC) Final at The Oval, London, former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has expressed his belief that India let themselves down in the first hour of the opening day of the one-off Test.

Australia maintained their pole position on Thursday, posting 469 in the first innings, thanks to Travis Head's 163 and Steve Smith's 121 and polished bowling performance from their four fast bowlers, as they reduced Rohit Sharma-led side to 151/5.
