Australian cricketing legend Ian Chappell feels Australia's display in the first Test against India has exposed their frailties against spin, and said the that the visitors need to adapt to the conditions quickly.
He asked Australia to stop thinking about pitches in India and just concentrate on their job.
"The first Test has exposed Australia's weakness against good spin bowling on turning pitches," the former Australian captain wrote in his column for ESPNCricinfo.
"If they can ensure this setback doesn't mean their mental capacity to cope in India is not dented, it will keep them in the series. If they waver, they are in big trouble," Chappell added.
Spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja bamboozled Australia on a typical red-soil wicket as the visitors crumbled to their lowest total in India (91) to suffer an innings defeat inside three days in Nagpur on Saturday.
