Nicknamed as the hot favorites to win plenty of trophies. Two best team that excels in all three departments of the game. The Indian pitches have traditionally been favorable to batsmen, and a perfect setting for the likes of Sachin, Shewag, Dravid, Dilshan, Sangakara, Gambhir Jayasurya, Yuvraj and many more excited batsmen to display their fireworks.

When it comes to bowling the Indian pitches are known to be suitable for pace bowlers. However it is not all about pace, both the teams in the test series have a great batting and bowling line-up. It is packed with variety from spin to shall we say sling?

Bowlers are to be something to watch out for with the most experienced and world’s leading wicket-taker Muralitharan leading the group. The 0ff-spinner’s unconventional doosra has a deceptive turn to it which does not come on to the bat but rather turns away from it. Bhajji’s ability to turn the ball hugely on any surface is something batsmen will be cautious of.

Other alternative bowlers to look forward to are Ajantha Mendis, whose Carrom ball shot with the variation in the grip and a flick off the middle finger deceives the batsmen, especially the right-handers. Couple them with the fiery Angelo Matthews, Ishant sharma and not to forget about the sharp fielding.

We have a serious contender, so get ready to roar…………
