Ajmal gets a five-fer on Day One....
And the pitch isn't even turning that much. It still looks good for batting....

So i guess England is "weak against spin" right? 
i can't think of any team recently who has dominated quality spin, even the "great indian batting order" at it's peak got murdered by Mendis in the sub-continant, imo it's about who copes with spin the best, no side dominates a quality spin attack for the whole two innings, that's why i'm hopeful for the future because even though we crumbled a few times to get 300, 463 and 590 on Indian soil against their spin is nothing to laugh at, and it's even more impressive when you consider the average age of our batting unit.

yes...but consider a measurement right here...
India get deh arse properly cut by all opponents last year, and this current Oz lixx here...while they defeated only 1 opponent... twice...westindies.
ok we say young team but Indian is seriously afflicted by immersion in T20/IPL and an aging team. westindies should have accounted for more drama against that team.
I attribute cause for such lack to the poor leadership of the team and the geberal turmoil in westindies cricket at the moment.
a new and better captain should help the situation forward. and by that dont mean Kirk Edwards
