Johnson is better of bowling with Kookubura ball only,since his style of bowling suits it.Here if he tries to ball with scrambled seam which is his natural style like not having seam up deliveries,he is bound to be ineffective since it will go straight as SG ball has pronounce seam which doesn't fade away easily,without any substantial movement either in the air,may be little bit of the pitch if pitch is little bit helpful.
Strangely Lee has forgotten to bowl reverse swing.He bowls well in AUS with Kookubura ball but not here.The only bowler who could exploit is Shane Watson,Since his seam position and realise is very good just like zaheer khan,so he should be watch out for

ausis hv found themselves uncomfortable bowling with sg balls which r used in ind. ausis bowlers r used to bowl with kooka bura balls n comfortable with it.
so what ausis vl do now is simple. they vl make hue n cry to ban using of sg balls. they vl pressurise the icc to use compulsorily the kookaboora balls in which ausi r comfortable! ausis r the known winners like this tactics of cry baby.

Toss will decide the match in Delhi for sure as before. (ANY TEAM WINNING THE TOSS WILL BAT FIRST IN DELHI) Ind win the toss - 99% possibility of Indian win & 1% for Aus win Aus win Toss - 40% chance of Aus win, 40% of a Draw and 10% chance of Ind win
Team winning toss has greater possibility of a win. But Ind can salvage a draw (as done in Bangaluru) even Aus wins the toss. This explains 40% chance of draw when Aus wins the Toss. Series win will be for Ind. Ind have a upper hand against AUS. The threatened them back in their own yard last time (please take out Sydney test- for the reason better know for all). So Aus dont have enough to threaten Ind in Ind.

In general if you follow oz policy then Kumble has to play the next match.In case of aussies when a tested player misseos out a match due to some inevitable circumstances,he will always be chosen again once he is available for selection.Mcgill was almost always amongs wickets again at a comparable strikerate of Warne,but he was always a second choice and thats called benchstrength in our case its Kumble after one bad series and after every indian series Warne was not dropped1

well... would you compare kumble to warne? warne manages to get the ball to turn, while in case of kumble, the batsmen expect the ball to turn because he calls himself a spinner, but the ball does not turn. moreover, kumble has not been performing well for almost a year now. who deserves to be dropped to make room for kumble? in my opinion, if kumble were not captain, he would have been dropped from the team a long time back.

even i dont like to call kumble a spinner. however, with turn or no turn, he has taken 600 wkts is also an achievement. ultimately its the skill of fooling a batsman to get his wkt.

Very good saying by Vikram Sagar, I agree with you & Mr Vinay , If any player in cricket history bowls 50-60 overs in a match , he can can 2-3 wickets easily. Thats not a big deal.
Friends, it would be grave injustice if Laxman is dropped. This man has always performed for India in times of need. Look at first match of this series, he stayed on to save the match and the critical innings in Sri Lanka helped us to salvage some prestige.
Re: Very unfair -if Laxman is dropped
by Vikram Sagar on Oct 26, 2008 11:04 AM
very true. if there is anyone who is screaming to be left out in the current team, it has to be kumble. a player of the caliber of laxman should not be dropped to accommodate kumble.
like GAUTAM GAMBHIR was unsung hero of tour of lanka as well as mohali mishra is unsung hero of mohali too it is true said LADE SIPAHI NAM SARDAR KA.
