Australia and Indian Squad for 3rd Test in Perth

The 3^rd test between Australia v India is going to start after some moment in Perth of Australia after much uncertainty. There was an uncertainty about the issue of Harbhajan Singh Harthat that the series will be organized more or not. However, at last the captains of both the teams have reached a peaceful result to carry on the game.

Now Australia are chasing to build a world record and India are chasing draw the series. And this game or series has become still a battle of dignity for India. It is expecting that Chris Rogers will introduce his test carrier in the home ground and Anil Kumble will achieve 600 wickets. Till now he has taken 599 wickets.

Australia hasn’t lost any test match in this ground in last ten years and they have won 8 tests out of 10 tests (the other two tests ended in draws). The pitch of Perth is a bouncy pitch. So, batsmen will get help from hare.

Although Sehwag was not continuous during last one year yet he has set to play the 3^rd test because got some confidence of his hundred in Canberra. Ricky ponting said, “He is a dangerous cricketer. We have played against him and know what his strength and weaknesses are; also we know the plan how to keep under wrap.”

On the host side Michael Clarke has done better with the ball than bat and Adam Gilchrist performed a 57-ball hundred on this ground last year. So, they may be dangerous for India.

Australia’s Sidney Test Victory and Others Story

Australia has made their 16^th continuous test match winning record at Sydney cricket ground. In the 2^nd test they won by 122 runs. So, Australia is leading the series by 2-0 of 4 tests matches. In the 2^nd test, Australia won the toss and elected to bat first and scored total 465 runs losing all wickets (Symond 162*, Hogg 79, Lee 59, Ponting 55). Losing 6 wickets at 132 runs, they had to face in a bad condition. Australia reached a good position by flying on Andrew Symonds’s confirm batting. Andrew Symonds has selected man of the match. Everything was good- excellent batting and bowling of both the team, but this will be memorable for wrong umpiring. In the first innings India’s achievement was 532, Sachain Tendulkar scored unbeaten 154 runs, VVS Laxman 109, Sourav Ganguly 67 and Rahul Dravid 53 which were mentionable. However, India leaded 69 runs to Australia. It seemed that, India might show a better thing this test match, but at last they failed to do so.

Australia declared at 401runs by 7wickets after batting the second innings. In this innings, it came 2 centuries, one for Mike Hussey 145 and other Mathew Hayden 123. To chase this run, India lost their all wickets for 210 runs. Just 7 balls were left to draw the match, but India could not reach.

In the first innings at first day, Indian bawlers created pressure upon Australian batsmen taking 6 wickets at a poor run. Yet, confirm batting of Symonds, Australia reached at 465. In Indian bowling side, captain Anil Kumble took 4wickets each in both the innings.

In this 2^nd test between Australia vs India, there have been followed some questionable decision of umpires. The out of Rahul Dravid and Sourav Ganguly was quite wrong decision. About this wrong decision, a letter has been issued on behalf of BCCI. However, it is a matter to see that what would happen in the next test match between Australia vs India.

All about the First Day of the First Test: Australia vs India

Much predictable Australia vs India test match has been started and already 1^st playing of the first test has finished. Australian captain Ricky Ponting won the toss and decided to bat first. After finishing the first day playing Australia has scored 337 runs for 9 wickets. The hosts were expected that they would build a big score in their first innings against India. But they have failed to build a big score. Although their starting was very excellent yet they couldn’t well from the lunch time till end of the day. The opening pair scored 135 runs and Australia lost their first wicket Phil Jaques, who scored 66 runs. Australian opening batsman Matthew Hayden scored his 28 test century in this test match and he took 124 runs playing 160 balls.

Indian captain Anil kumble is the first bowler, who attacked first in Australian batting line by his aggressive bowling. He bagged Australian major 5 wickets are Mike Hussey (2), dangerous big-hitter Andrew Symonds (35), Adam Gilchrist (23) and Brett Lee (0). Anil kumble finished the day with 5 for 84 off 25 overs. It is his 35 test five wickets against Australia. Mentioned that, Indian captain Anil kumble is the 3^rd highest wicket hunter in the world now.

Another left arm successful pace bowler Zaheer Khan took important 3 wickets giving 93 off 22 overs. He bagged the wickets of Matthew Hayden (124), Australian skipper Ricky Ponting (4) and left-hand Brad Hogg (17).

Rudro Pratap Singh got only the wicket of Michael Clarke and another spinner Harvajan Shing remained ticketless.

However, at last Australia took 202runs for 9 wickets in the 1^st day of 1^st test. And they took this runs after losing their first wicket. Australia has a record of continue wining of 8 test matches. If they may win all of the test match in this series then they could build a record in test cricket. So this is a great chance for the host team. After all Australia is great powerful team in their home ground against any team in the world. However now Australia has only one wicket is left. Mitchell Johnson (10) and Stuart Clark (21) are in crease. They will start their playing for 2^nd day. Let us see what will happen tomorrow?

The fans you all are thinking why am I telling that that series is most important because Australia is going to touch or break their own records of test wins any break. India made stop Australia in the 12 wins in the home test series in he own soil in Indian with the captaincy of Steve Waugh. If India wins any Test match then it will be the second time that Indian can do any thing against any team.

Star Cricket
Star Cricket is also the pay channel based on India but others countries of South Asia can watch the channel. The channel may show the similar program but the language is Hindi or others (Star Sports/ ESPN) always. That is why, every on did not pay for that channel.

Do you think that India will be able to repeat their previous lesson in this series? If yes, what should India need to do? India will have to show the impressive performances. During India-Pakistan in both ODI and test series at home, India showed a remarkable performance. You can expect that Indian cricketers are confident enough to take on Australia, but will it be easy for India? There is to doubt that Australia is the best Cricket Team in The world. They have proved that Australian is the best team on the other hand India will have to prove that they are also one of the best Teams in the world.

But, at the time of Pakistan tour on India, Indian selection Board take a quick decision and select Anil Kumble the captain for the series and India has won the series 1-0 of three match series.

You could think that it is not a good victory. I think so. The most important work which Kumble did. At the age of 37, it seems that he has got the now life. The new performances during the home Test series he again has selected captain for Australia tour.

India vs Australia test series will begin later this month. Ahead of the series, Indian selectors have recently confirmed that Anil Kumble will lead India against Australia in the test series. 37 year old, Anil Kimble was made Team India’s new captain before the start of India vs Pakistan ongoing test series. With this excellent bowling performance, Anil Kumble led India to win the first test of the series. Now, India leads in the series 1-0 with a test yet to be held. However, Indian selectors have not declared the Indian side yet due to injury of some key pace bowlers of Indian team.

Now we have to wait what Anil Kumble can do. Will he able to show the same performances like home series that did along with Pakistan.
