Australia Vs India 4th test.

[ProfessionalMackem]

Series whitewash for India?

Clarke's and Punter's double tons putting the Aussies on top. Sewag and Dravid already out in response top the massive 1st innings of 604. Where's the fight and quality that took them to the pinnacle of test cricket? They're a shadow of that side, they're making an average Aussie side looking like world beaters!

 

[The Breen Machine]

They never got to the top showing fight and quality, they got there because of a fantastic home record in tests and a couple of years being better than normal away from home. They are back to usual now with an ageing side and young cricketers being fed a diet of IPL - worrying times for Indian cricket.

Any different to England?

Any different to England?

Yes?

England have a more than reasonable recent away record, very few ageing players and their top players turned down the IPL.

Next.

Most of them look like they just want to go home, mentally they are shot. Which given the quality in there batting line up is quite surprising.

Australia have to be looking at Marsh. He hasn't scored a run all series.

He could be dropped when Watson is back fit.

Record Aus-Ind crowd for a test in Adelaide this week. Good to hear.

He will be dropped

He and Khwaja need to work on defensive techniques before replacing Ponting and Hussey after the next ashes

Ponting will be playing for the next year at least going off that display. Unless he has already stated is retirement date?
