Three major reasons for India's defeat-
1- Regular captain rohit sharma returned in this Test, but Rohit decided to play in the middle order. Rohit was a complete flop. He could score 6 runs in the first innings and 3 runs in the second innings. If Rohit had come to open and batted aggressively against bowlers like Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, the result of the match could have been different.
2- indian batsmen did not try to score runs in both the innings of this Test. If we compare the batsmen of australia and india, the difference will be easily seen. Travis Head scored runs quickly and scored a century. On the other hand, indian batsmen looked a bit more defensive. nitish kumar Reddy played freely and he was the highest run scorer for india in both the innings. No other indian batsman showed an approach like him.
3- indian bowlers also could not perform as expected in this Test. It was clearly seen that the bowlers could not bowl according to their strategy. On one hand, while the Australian bowlers tried to make the indian batsmen play, the indian bowlers were mostly seen bowling on the outside line. The bowlers' plan in Perth was quite different, but they looked ineffective in Adelaide.
