Later this month, the Twenty20 champions will be traveling DownUnder to play the mighty Australians on their home-turf.
The tour will perhaps be the last visit for a number of Indian stalwarts who will be looking to leave a lasting impression. The team is a good blend of youth and experience and with a new coach (in Gary Kirsten) looking on as a consultant (He joins the team as a coach officially after the tour), the guys will be looking to create the right impression. On the other hand, the Australian team will be without their long time warriors, Warne, Martyn, Langer and McGrath but it hardly seemed to make much of a difference while clinically destroying the Sri Lankans on their recent tour of two test matches.
Can India do any better?? Only time will tell.
We (in DownUnder) are in for an an exciting time this summer and it never really looked better.
