Following Australia's batting collapses in the fourth Ashes Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, former Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa advised Australian batters to adopt patience, citing the examples of Indian players Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane. Uthappa suggested that despite challenging conditions, a patient approach can yield runs, even if not high scores. The advice comes amid scrutiny of Australia's batting performance, with former player Matthew Hayden calling for coaching staff changes.
