India, Australia and Sri Lanka ODI triangular series in Australia.

Matches start on Feb 3’ 2008. There are 12 matches and 3 finals (3rd final is optional).If the points are tied the team with highest NRR(net run rate) proceeds to the finals.

SriLanka will be at disadvantage as India is now comfortable with Australian pitches. Australia are strong favorites and It is interesting to see how Australian sportsmanship will be as India and Sri Lanka teams both had issues in the past playing against Australia in Australia. This is one reason I would watch this series to see for any controversies.

Adelaide test match news

-> Cry babies! Aussie media slam India's win

"India's stunning performance in the third Test at the WACA should be dedicated to a lot more than the 11 players out on the field," a whining report in the Courier Mail said.

"They should share their pay cheques with their bullying officials back home, the weak-kneed administrators at the International Cricket Council and certain members of the media who have taken every opportunity to put the knife into the Aussies since this series began," Mike Colman wrote in the daily.

-> How Sehwag plotted Ponting's fall

"Meri baat maano... Ponting strike par hai aur ladka (Ishant) rhythm mein hai (Ponting is on the strike and the boy is in rhythm)," were Sehwag's words of wisdom to Kumble.

The Indian skipper paid heed and asked Ishant, "Ek aur karega? (Would you bowl another over?)."

Ishant replied, "Haan Karoonga (Yes I will)" and went on to pay back the faith by getting Ponting caught behind of the very first ball of that extra over.

Update :
India wins 3rd test match at Perth - after a great resistance from Stuart Clark and Johnson.

Final wicket and celebrations video:



Sehwag takes Gilchrist and Lee ... Australia down by seven wickets ..India half a mile distance to victory.

India has decent chances to win Perth test match after the end of day3.

348 runs is what Australia have to make in 2 days with eight wickets remaining.

The tour took a nasty turn with two - teams, boards, media finger pointing each other who was wrong in second test played at Sydney.
Bucknor is removed for next test match to be played at Perth.

This test match is gaining much hype to see what events will unfold when India clashes with Australia on Jan 16 at W.A.C.A stadium at Perth

Perth test match news

-> India worst-behaved team: Australian media

'The Sunday Telegraph' painstakingly collected and collated official ICC data, which shows India having faced more sanctions than any other Test playing nation in the past 10 years.

The daily also took a jibe at former India captain Sourav Ganguly, dubbing him "the game's undisputed problem child, being hauled over the coals by cricket's governing body a record 12 times in his international career."

"Overall, Indian players have been charged for 43 infringements since 1997, for offences including intimidating umpires, abusing rival players, ball tampering, time wasting and widespread dissent," it said.

-> Indian board withdraws pull-out threat of Australia tour

The Indian cricket board has withdrawn the threat to pull out of the ongoing Australian tour if a ban on Harbhajan Singh was not overturned by the International Cricket Council.

"There is no question of the tour being called off," board spokesman Rajiv Shukla quoted president Sharad Pawar as saying on Saturday.

"He (Pawar) said the two boards intend to maintain good relations as there is no problem with the two," Shukla said.

-> BCCI got ICC on its knees: Lankan Newspaper

The BCCI has brought the ICC on its knees by getting controversial umpire Steve Bucknor removed from the remainder of the India-Australia Test series, a state run newspaper said here on Thursday.

An editorial in the government-run paper 'Daily News' said the incident could have "split the white and black cricket playing nations".

-> We are not sorry about anything: Gilchrist

Adam Gilchrist: We obviously enjoyed the end result. It was a huge day for us to come away with a victory. It was a hard-fought Test match - both teams at some point in the game had an upper hand and then the other team fought back.

India is in form beating (weak) Pakistan team in both one days and tests.Australia as always maintains their champions title by beating recently New Zealand in Chapple-Hadlee series.
India should give their 200% to have any chance to get close to victory in this tour/series.
