At WACA will Australia come to earth
Apparently, MCG had a subcontinental pitch and India lost the match in four days. I have a gut feeling that at WACA, India will knock Australia inside four days and equal the series in the last test.The reasons are several. For one Australia have given their all and still manged an early lead owing to some questionable decisions. Secondly, for various reasons india will want to do well at Perth. Thirdly, at Perth Brad Hogg or Michael clarke will hardly be a major force. And the team will be reinforced in the form of its only test match specialist in Sehwag. I cannot think of another batsman with more than fifty matches in either form with a performance differential of this magnitude. Barring Lee's speed there is little to choose between the medium paced attack of the two teams. India should be able to get around australia in Perth.
