Ian Chappell, writing in Mid-Day, says as India’s tour of Australia wore on, Tendulkar’s form deteriorated; the Australian bowlers eventually got inside his mind and along with thoughts of his century this was too much for him to process.

Less than two years ago, India’s next generation of players was led by Suresh Raina and Rohit Sharma. At present, though, Virat Kohli has overtaken them as front runner, while Raina and Rohit are still striving to cement permanent spots in the Indian team, writes Aditya Iyer in the Indian Express. No-one but Rohit and Raina can be blamed for how the present has panned out.
