Border-Gavaskar Trophy: Write them off at your peril, says Michael Hussey on Rohit and Kohli

The Hindu  

India’s biggest series defeat in Test cricket came recently when the team suffered a 0-3 loss to New Zealand at home.

They have several players who have experienced success in Australia before, so I’m confident they will prepare well and take some confidence into the first Test. | Photo Credit: PTI Do you think this is perhaps Australia’s best chance to take revenge for the previous two series defeats, or do you believe a wounded Indian team would be far more dangerous?
