Would Ashwin get a wicket at all??? He's learning his lesson a hard way. poor him! Bhajji must be smiling... Rather than blaming the bowlers, it's the collective failure of the legendary batting line up that did India in. Ghambir even if he scores a 50 or 100 (very unlikely) in the second innings must be thrown out and Abinav Mukund must be brought in. I strongly believe Rahane can not handle it here. And, get rid of that man Virat who can only play gestures with the audience and can't do anything noteworthy in the middle and bring in Rohit. Let's hope, we at least do not lose by 4-0 from here on.
with the current state of indian cricket team, aussies doesn't need to bring any specialist to bring victory. even if australia selects 12 spectators to play against india, we will loose. ours in pathetic condition. the only reason everyone is looking is sachins ton. what a sad state for a Team. against england 5-0, aussies 4-0 and we call our batsmen greatest in the world !!! what a pity.

The debacle in England was an anamoly. India totally dominated Englad when they visited India and paid them back in a befitting manner. India needed 3 or 4 matches before the start of the test series. However, players have tight schedule and sheduling warm up matches (to get used to overseas condition) is currently imposible.

it looks as if d world cup victory has given indian team d licence to lose as many series they want.
This test is almost gone. we need irfan to open & play out the new ball at least for one hour. Harris is a good choice for aussies & we shld get our team in order. dhoni can bat & captain only @ home & that too only in 20 -20. we can have 3 diff captains in 3 diff formats.
If harris plays in Perth and Adilaide, then it will be 4-0 white wash for Team india as Harris a wicket taking bowler who can lead the young pacers in the Aussie's team. The senior trip- Sachin, Dravid and Laxman Hang up your boots after this series. India should look for another opener in place of Gambir and may be a more intelligent captain in tests instead of MSD
