Sydney Test: India Vs. Australia!! Predictions Please?

Hi Ram My money is on India. Its definitely a victory this time and maybe Sachin is going to achieve his 100th 100 this time, Well thats what I feel. We'll have to wait and watch but I think this one's going to be ours.

We never won a test match in Australia, if we won one it is history

The way India performed in its first Test, may I predict one more loss or draw. Sachin -- he will not be able to make 100th 100 because he has gone to Australia with his family and concentration will be not adequate. It is time Sachin is retired from test matches. this is my personal view.

HI. I think India will win the game. Only if the Top and middle order will make good runs. Bowling has been absolutely Fantastic. i especially liked Umesh yadav and zaheer.zaheer was swinging the ball beautifully and did not ball to much of bad deliveries. Ishant sharma also bowled beautifully but i don't understand why he did not get wickets. everyone around the world,before the 1st test match said that India did not have any good bowlers. people were not sure whether they could take 20 wickets. but bowlers surprised them all. so i think if top order batsman got very good runs and bowlers do the job like they did in first test i am so sure that India is going to win the next match and level the series. and i hope sachin to get his 100th ton!!!

The new year does start with a bang as India take on the Aussies for Round 2 in Sydney. The Aussies are rejuvenated by their win (which they badly needed). They have regained their confidence, and with talks of Pat Cummins joining the team, things doesn't look well for India. Once again MSD's one-dimensional thinking has been exposed as his inability to cope up with the new ball. Strangely, India's bowling department did good. The pace trio of Ishant, Zaheer and Yadav is doing good, but much remains to be seen as Ishant and Zaheer have both struggled when it comes to fitness. Elsewhere, India's inability to bat in foreign soil continues. Gambhir's being flopping regularly (in tests), same with Dhoni, the much hyped Wall did get bridged (thrice), Sachin's failure-to-score-another-hundred-jinx still continues. But, that being said, being an Indian, am sensing a fightback. The Indians are capable of thrashing the Australians. Remember, the Aussies have their own problem. They are yet to find a successful opening pair and Nathan Lyon was anything but effective against the Indians. So lets hope Indians can give a fitting reply to the Aussies and start this year with a bang.
