2. Poor Catching:
The Australians took catches while the Indians did not. This can be one of the biggest difference between both sides. Australia were spot on in grabbing almost all opportunities that came on the field. While India fumbled right from Day 1 and appeared very mediocre. In fact, Steven Smith would have never been able to reach the special century had he been caught at 22 and not been given four more lives at various stages of his innings thereafter.
