WTC Final: It Wasn't A 469 Pitch; Needed A Big Partnership, Had The Big Players For It, Says Dravid
AUS vs IND WTC Final: India head coach Rahul Dravid believes his bowlers could have done better on The Oval pitch, where they allowed Australia to pile on 469 runs in the first innings of the World Test Championship (WTC) Final and admitted the team had "big players" who could have formed a solid partnership to chase down a daunting 444.
On Day One of the clash, Travis Head (163) and Steve Smith (121) took full advantage of a lacklustre Indian bowling line-up to stitch a 285-run partnership and take Australia's first innings total to 469. It meant India played catchup throughout the match despite a late fightback from Ajinkya Rahane (89), and Shardul Thakur (51) with the bat in the first innings.
