India in good position but needs to do more, says Ashwin
R. Ashwin, who finished with three wickets in Australia's first innings, spoke after play of the importance of “readiness” for a bowling unit.
“It's very important to have the readiness to go on to the park and take ten wickets,” said the off-spinner.
“In the Ashes last season, England always looked like they wanted to bowl rather than bat. That's the impression a good bowling attack gives. How we recover after the first innings and how ready we are to bowl will be important. A lot depends on our readiness in the second innings.”
Asked about his role on a first-day wicket, Ashwin, who bowled 24 overs at a stretch, said, “I did want to shut down one end so the three seamers could be rotated from the other end. It's not often spinners get wickets on the first and second day. “A lot of things need to come together for that. I was happy with the way I was releasing it. The bounce will always keep me in the game. There was not much deviation, but there was bounce and drift. It drifted both ways in the air and I tried to use that.”
Ashwin said India was in a good position after the second day, but more work was needed.

Media, players slam absence of DRS
Ricky Ponting has joined his Australian team-mates in questioning why the Decision Review System is not being used in the Test series against India, saying that the DRS should be used uniformly in every series throughout the world.
Mike Hussey (0) and Ed Cowan (68) fell to
controversial decisions on the opening day of the first Test yesterday and Ponting fired a subtle shot at the Indian Cricket Board on its refusal to use the controversial technology. "I thought that was the way it was when it first came in, that it was compulsory in every series we played, but apparently not," Ponting said.
"It's just this one series against India it keeps popping up we are not using this system. As players you want uniformity around the world and you want consistency in the technology," he told ABC radio.

Umesh is good, just needs experience: Lawson
Young pacer Umesh Yadav is very promising and his “old-fashioned side-on” action will fetch him more wickets once he gains a bit of experience, according to former Australian fast bowler Geoff Lawson. “He’s a very side-on, old-fashioned fast bowler. That's why he bowls fast and bowls
out-swingers,” Lawson told the Australian media.
“He reminds me of (South African) Vernon Philander, only that he bowls quicker than Vernon. But they both get the seam up and bowl out-swingers, and Yadav’s doing it at 145, 148 (kph) sometimes. So, if you can do that then you are going to get a lot of good players out.”
Back him
The 54-year-old former Pakistan coach feels Yadav could have taken more wickets if a proper field had been in place for the tearaway pacer, who touched the 150 kph mark. “He’s only a young guy. A good, strong guy, so he’s quite promising. He just needs to get a bit more experience behind him,” Lawson said.
“And they’ve got to learn to set some proper fields for him on Australian wicket, which means a few more behind the wickets on the off side.
“That’s probably cost him 30 runs today, through third man, through third slip. But other than that, he’s bowled delightfully well.”

Ganguly backs BCCI's decision of not using DRS
Former India captain Sourav Ganguly today said that the Decision Review System (DRS) is flawed and there was nothing wrong on the Indian Cricket Board's part in refusing to use the controversial technology.
Ganguly, who had played the series against Sri Lanka in 2008 when the DRS was first used on trial basis, said that the problems of the technology were extremely obvious as India could manage to get only one of their 20 referrals right.
"We had a terrible experience with that, in that first series in Sri Lanka. From that point of view, we had our issues," said Ganguly.
The BCCI has always been against the DRS and its concerns increased during this year's tied World Cup match against England when an lbw appeal and then a referral against Ian Bell was rejected.
While a Hawk-Eye replay showed that the delivery would have hit the stumps, the Indians were incensed when the referral was quashed on the grounds Bell had been struck more than 2½ metres from the stumps, the distance at which the technology wanes and accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
