What is the main factor in India's poor batting

I think the main reason for poor batting performance is the lack of belief in Indian players. We cant say that our players are unfamiliar with australian conditions as their are players like dravid, laxman, sachin. The only problem is lack of belief.

I think problem is a lot more psychological than physical. And this psychological is turning physical as the pressure is building. Australia displayed its newly formed team as a vulnerable and kept its comments low profile and this generated some sort of overconfidence in our batting lineup, dreaming of picking up the trophy before even the match started. But with initial shocks this whole confidence collapsed like a castle made from the deck of cards and took our batting lineup along with. Hope is every thing now. Lets see what happens.

The main factor is that they take aussis bowler are new and he has not much experience like brett lee, jhonshon etc, but the aussis bowler has perform so well as keep the indian batman so far no loose bowel to take the benefit from him.. why indian batting line up is strong in paper but not in real ground which is green grass as all batsman scare that to bating in that greeen grass.

Though everyone complaints Indian batting failure, I think Indian bowlers failed more than the batsmen. On the the 1st innings Australia was too faced a dangerous position losing all initial three batsmen for nominal score, but there wasn't any bowler to support Saheer Khan to bring similar penetrations to continue the damage. That was the reason for the huge 659/4 of Australia after losing 3 wickets before getting 100 runs. Australian bowling is equally performing with their batting.

Well I think it is a variety of factors.. Well unfamiliarity to Australian conditions will always be there as we never get pitches like these back home.. But this cannot be an excuse because the core of India's batting are on their 4th and 5th tours here and only kohli has not played before in Australia.. So I would give a lot of credit to the Aussie bowlers for bowling well and I also feel our openers have let us down..Dravid has had an amazing year I agree, but has really looked very bad this tour, Sachin has looked fluent but has not been able to score those big centuries he scored last time and VVS has looked like age is finally catching up on him.. Finally the most worrying part is this is the best team we have and we cannot replace them with anyone better.. ( except probably Rohit for Kohli).. So I just hope the big 3 really deliver the next 2 test matches or we can expect a whitewash as predicted Mcgrath..
