Mind Games

Looks like the mind games have begun! Few months earlier Hayden accused subcontinental batsman of being selfish and that they were more interested in personal landmarks than the team's cause.His remarks caused a furore around India but the Indian players, rather cleverly,chose not to add fuel to the fire. Saurav has now said that the Australians wont be too comfortable playing the Indians as India are the only team to have trouble Australia in the recent past.

John Buchanan , the Aussie coach, seems to be quite troubled by the pitch for the first test at Bangalore and has described it as ''terrible''. Come on John, when visiting teams tour down under dont you choose 3 fast men on the quickest wicket in the world,Perth and have almost everyone at slip? Its only natural that when you come to India we will have fielders all around the bat and expect our spin twins to wreck havoc. If good batsman will make runs on the quickest of pitches, then the best of batsman will also make runs on treacherous turners.
