After two back to back win India was on top of Australia, with reviewers and cricket commentators giving no chance to Kangaroos in the series. For many of the Indian commentators the series had already ended.



That was the reason that people’s response to the fourth one day international was lackluster.

They concurred with commentators’ views that Australia were already out of the ODI series. The last game’s TRP was very low compared to previous ones apparently due to only this reason.

But Australia have made a great comeback squaring the series in their uncharitable style.

India must be worried owing to the great form and consistency that Ricky Ponting, Watson and Mike Hussey have shown in the last few matches. Ponting scores in every match whether his team wins or loses the match.

Australia have shown this heroic performance despite the fact that they are playing without their top six to seven players. Reduce the same number of players from Indian side and then see how they perform.

Sidharth Monga while writing in Cricinfo says, “Australia have no business being 2-2 in this series. Seven first-choice men out, followed by two of their replacements (Moises Henriques being the latest). Foreign conditions. Back-to-back matches, spread across the length and breadth of India, suggesting more a sightseeing tour than one of the cricketing variety. Bowlers struggling at the death. Big hitters absent. Horror of horrors, Andrew Symonds is being discussed again by the fans. Conventional wisdom suggests that cannot be a good sign for the Australian team. Look at the scoreline, though – Two wins each. Who told Australia they could compete once their players started going down one by one after the first ODI?”

But despite the absence of their top players Australia are in the series standing shoulder to shoulder with India.

But despite the absence of their top players Australia are in the series standing shoulder to shoulder with India.

Never take Australians out of race till they are already defeated on the cricket ground. They usually make strong comebacks and have this uncanny ability of amazing their opponents.

What they did in Mohali was exactly the same.

Even though they failed to capitalize on the good performance of their top order, the modest 250 run target never looked achievable for India from the moment Sehvag left the series.

His wicket and the loss of wickets at regular intervals kept India under constant pressure and India was never able to come out of the shock.

Gautam Gambhir was another factor that badly affected Indian morale on the ground. Virat Kohli can never give the sort of confidence hat comes with Gambhir being in the team.

Gautam Gambhir has been a member of the Indian national cricket team since 2003.

He was a prolific run-scorer in domestic cricket with an average of over 50 but his two successive double-hundreds in 2002 (one of them against the visiting Zimbabweans) made him a strong contender for India’s opening slot.

He became only the fourth Indian batsman to score a double century in a tour game at home; the previous three being Sunil Gavaskar, Dilip Vengsarkar and Sachin Tendulkar. He is the only Indian batsman to score more than 300 runs in four consecutive Test series. On July 2009, for a period of ten days he was the number one ranked batsman in ICC Test rankings.
