India vs Australia - Preview

Its a special weekend with a India vs australia one day match. Millions of fans will be glued to watch the game in any shape of form they can. Its big and a victory will be a major pyshological boost to the team claiming the DLF cup in malaysia. The Australians are a tough bunch. World champions, skilled, athletic and more importantly very tough mentally. India will have to outperform them in every aspect of the game to win today though i believe that the mindset aspect will play a huge role in the game .Whether its the clash of McGrath vs Tendulkar or whether it is Irfan vs Gilchrist on the crease the contest promises to be grueling and competetively contested. Australia came off a scare by the westindies, but managed to win easliy. India are coming off a cruel loss to west indies and a loss here would not help the team morale.Australia certainly would be more positive and confident going into the game. To defeat them india would have to put in their very best. I am looking forward to watch portions of the match with friends and family and will write about my thoughts shortly on cricblog.
