Australia vs India prediction thread

Winner : Draw
Series scoreline : 1-1
Most runs : Clarke
Most wickets : Zak Khan
Man of the series : Clarke
First Aussie to get dropped : McGain
First Indian to get dropped : Ganguly
First player to get booked by the match referee : Clark to lose it for mine

From whatever i have seen of him, tbh he seems to be the last guy likely to lose it.

 

[Pup Clarke]

A hint of tongue in cheek tbh.

Yeah, I think I was just on auto-pilot when I picked Harbhajan for most wickets. Seems pretty unlikely to me in retrospect. I'd pick Kumble instead.

 

[Richard]

Until recently I'd have picked Kumble over Harbhajan every time as he too has had great success against Australia at home. But Kumble's recent form has been pretty mediocre and Harbhajan's has been notably better.

Good idea from Uppercut, random prediction from me is that Hussey will take a top-order wicket in one of the games

 

[andyc]

Brett Lee to make at least one 50. Not really that random, but whatever.

Winning 3-0 away would be one hell of an achievement considering they couldn't beat them by more than a margin of 2-1 at home.

AUstralia may very well win but I'd be amazed if its by more than 1 test. In the last twenty years India have only lost by more than 1 test once.....and that was when South AFrica faced a pretty disjointed India outfit in 2000.
Prior to that the last team to really thrash India at home was the West Indies at their peak in the early eighties.

I'll go for one of the four Indian greats to have retired by or at the end of the series.
