After winning the opening Test it is the other way round, the Indians have felt a strong and convincing Australian backlash to come level in the second Test itself. Wrong reading of the pitch and wrong team selection has shown that there is more to winning matches than just on field performances. India started off without a balanced team for the Test by ignoring their spinners,then played with an XI that had 4 tail-enders who could not bat and two openers who were not just upto it. That made it only 5 players who could contribute. Take 2 batsmen who were denied starts or could not play big innings. That left the burden of a good test score of 300 to the three. Now we will have a debutant and a player who have had no conditioning of Australian pitches who are rushed into playing an upbeat opponents. So we know where the pressure is and how well our present players can handle it. Brace yourself for a 2-1 result in favour of Australia and pin your hopes on the New Years Test in Sydney
