Indian fast bowlers get carried away when there is too much help

We lacked effort in the morning session,bowlers didn't know what length to hit .in the afternoon session the pitch completely changed and it was probably then and the evening session when we should have probably pitched the ball a bit up with the quickened up pitch as compared to the morning session where pitching the ball up wasn't giving any rewards .

We gave easy runs to head and marsh

It was actually opposite.  They all were a bit too full in first session in an attempt to get swing at least for first 10-15 overs where they scored 47 runs in 13 overs as there was no swing but after drinks, they pulled their length back a bit which helped them squeeze the run rate and Aussies could only score 19 runs in next 13 overs.

They were all too short. Not enough balls on good length. This point was well covered (at least in the Fox sports feed -  not sure about Sony).

Aussies would have already seeing the game till now.  also pitch got harder and quicker from the second session onward.  In first session, Pant was at times gathering at shin height from Bumrah.

 

another most important thing regarding trying too much, i thought they did not try enough early on.  they saw grass and thought it will be a pitch like Capetown and they have to just put the ball and pitch will do the job which did not happen. 

 

Um, this is the story of Perth for the last several years. The pitch flatters to deceive for seam movement and isnt very fast or bouncy till the 2nd & 3rd days, when the sun bakes the pitch into a rock-hard substance. Then on 4th-5th days, as it starts to break up a bit, fast bowlers lose the bounce but its not broken enough to give big purchase to spinners. 
IIRC, Perth's trajectory for the last several matches has been 'mammoth first day scoring--> wickets fall like crazy on day 2 and 3, then mammoth 4th & 5th day scoring'.

Exactly but I believe rkt is talking about the runs scored which were mostly of half volleys and balls that were too full.

 

They were all over the place with length which we can give them the benefit of doubt for figuring out a new surface but their lines were too straight as well.

I think the opposite happened.

 

They were so afraid of getting carried away on a green pitch that they did not bowl with full effort.

 

Half the time, our pacers were just gently placing the ball there at medium pace ...  don't remember the last time I saw this from them in the last 4 years.

Yep, they just seemed to be bowling within themselves up front.  As ticsy pointed out, Ishant was tring to sort out his swing issues, and Umesh was just umesh.  For a change, it was Shami who looked threatening right from the get-go in the first innings.

That does not bode well for us does it.

This is not waca. This is only the second fc game at this stadium and there won't be any sun fir next 3-4 days so pitch won't break and grass won't get burned.

This is the first time they play a test here. This is not WACA. This is OPTUS. Moreover this is a drop-in pitch.
