Where's the Fire

One thing we all going to miss in this India-Australia series would be the fire, not on the batting powerplay but on the field. Everybody from both teams is talking about the rivalry created between the teams on the last 2 years. But the main reason for the rivalry is missing on this tournament. One of the missing element on this rivalry is Sreesanth, who made the pitch look like a boxing ring. When he is up against Hayden or Symonds, we always had a feeling that something unlike cricket is going to happen. Uthappa, the reason for mentioning his name is because of the quote he said “We will fight fire with fire” just before the start of the previous India-Australia series shows his aggression against Australians. Then the rivalry combo of Harbajan and Symonds which is quite famous for “Maa ki or Monkey” a kind of school fight but still got the most attention, Symonds is not on the tour maybe he is still fishing somewhere.

And the good news for the auditions is Gambhir and Watson, we are not excepting an elbow again from Gambhir but definitely some heat between them on field. Talking about Australians how can I forget the master who scored 2670 runs in 61 mathces with 8 Hundreds, Sachin. Against the Australians, Sachin always have something special.
