Australia lost the first Test by a huge margin. There were not many positives for the visitors as India dominated the proceedings throughout the game. However, debutant Todd Murphy stood out for the Aussies as the off-spinner picked up seven wickets in the match. Murphy did not look unplayable but managed to produce wicket-taking deliveries. 

However, this might not be the case in Delhi as Indian batters have got an idea about Murphy’s variations. So, the off-spinner might manage around three wickets in the first innings.
