As Australians were leading the four match test series 1-0 with a 122 run margin against Indians at MCG last week, second test starts on Tuesday at Sydney which is going to be the 100th test to be played at SCG.
Australians were high on confidence after winning the first match and they are looking forward to win the test at SCG to regain their winning run. SCG curator said that the pitch was prepared in a way to help both the teams. Hussey on a interview said that Sydney deck has less grass when compared to the past SCG pitches so it can help spinners to get some purchase of it. Clarke announced that unchanged team is likely to play at Sydney. First two days of the test, pitch is expected to support seamers and batting is going to be tough at early hours of play. Batting is still a worry for Australia because their top order fail to get a solid start. If Australian openers get off to a good start then Aussies will have greater chance to win the test.
SCG is one of the Sachin's happy hunting ground where he scored three centuries including a double ton. Sachin averages massive 221.33 at Sydney along with him Laxman and Ponting also averages in high sixties at SCG. Rohit is likely to replace Kohli on second test . If India's openers gets off to a good start then other batsmen can easily capitalise on it. Indian Bowlers are likely to replay their performance that they showed at MCG but they should clean up the tail as fast as they can. If Indian batters can able to show their classy touch in batting then India can surely square the series.
Dhoni warns Australia by saying that "India aren't finished yet". Indians are expected to bounce back at Sydney and if they do win at SCG then surely they won't lose test series. Medias are go on praising on Australian pace attack these things removes pressure on Indians this will help Indians to bounce back easily. Mcgrath predicted that Australia will win the test series by thrashing India 4-0. All predictions are in favour of Australians but India have potential to break those predictions. Hope for best Indian fight back at SCG. Mark my words India's winning streak starts here at Sydney.
