India Vs Australia
Third Test Match
16th January 2008 @ WACA, Perth


New thread for the third test match

I am expecting the Australians(yeah not the Indians) to come back with vengeance. They would want to show that they can finish a match properly with any umpiring help and beat the Indians. Frankly looking at the pace wicket there, i do not see the Indians doing any better. Some fast bowlers need to have an exceptional 2-3 days if India are going to make a match of this one.

Jaffer did well today in the practice match and Sehwag flopped. I guess day after will be one more chance for him. Lets see how he does there. Else the opening combination looks as good as we have right now.

My team(todays )
Jaffer
Dravid
Laxman
Sachin
Sourav
Dhoni
Irfan
Kumble
RP
Ishant


And fit in either of Sehwag, kartick or Yuvraj based on who does well in the practice match. I don't see a place for Bhajji at Waca

^^

GOD SAVE INDIA!

Looks like Yuvraj gone for sure now. And Dhoni is under pressure too

But what a great innings from Sehwag. The bugger has this uncanny ability to throw in a superb innings when you are almost sure its curtains. And now we can be sure of Sehwag playing in all the remaining matches of this series including ODI's

Well that would be the playing 11. But frankly DK deserves a place after his yesterday's knock. Dhoni hasn't done any good, with the bat or the glooves so far in this tour.

Anyways I don'y think Sachin is gonna bat at No.5. He is very particular about playing at No4. Dravid will have to come 3 down
