India then reached the winning target of 115 for the loss of four wickets to take a 2-0 lead and retain the <!-- -->Border-Gavaskar Trophy<!-- -->.<br \/>&#8220;Our methods are going to be critiqued, and rightfully so,&#8221; McDonald was quoted as saying by Australian Associated Press on Monday.<br \/>&#8220;At the end of day two, if you said our preparation was good (with Australia on 61\/1), you&#8217;d probably have a different slant on it, but within an hour (on day 3) then people start to critique what happened in the past&#8230;<br \/>&#8220;And day three, as well as we could have been and we failed under the examination of India,&#8221; added McDonald, who replaced Justin Langer as head coach after Australia&#8217;s 4-0 win in the Ashes.<br \/>The coach said that as far as he understood, the preparatory camp in Bengaluru on turning tracks had provided adequate preparation for the spin test.<br \/>&#8220;I still wouldn&#8217;t have changed what we did leading in, there&#8217;s no doubt about that,&#8221; McDonald said on Monday.<br \/>&#8220;I think they (squad) had really good preparation in Bangalore, so there&#8217;s not any excuses,&#8221; added the coach.<br \/>He also said that some players diverted from their time-tested game plan, which resulted in the second humiliating defeat.<br \/>&#8220;There were some people who went clearly away from the game plan that made them successful over a period of time and that&#8217;s for us to own as a collective. We&#8217;ve got to be better than that, that&#8217;s the bottom line, we&#8217;ve got to own it and we are not here to shy away from the fact that wasn&#8217;t good enough.&#8221;<br \/>The third Test in Indore from March 1, could see Australia usher in major changes in the side, especially with pace bowler Mitchell Starc and all-rounder Cameron Green expected to be fit after missing the first two games. <\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                  window.TimesApps = window.TimesApps || {};\n                  const { TimesApps } = window;\n                  TimesApps.loadFBEvents = function() {\n                    (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                      if (f.fbq) return;\n                      n = f.fbq = function() {\n                        n.callMethod ?
