One wishes to see a happy India, not unhappy one on Day three

-- Do not worry, be happy, even if Australian top order clicks. Unless Australia make in excess of 600 runs, they can’t hope to win this test. Realistically speaking, the only winner right now look to be India. So the worst case scenario, as of now, is a 1-2 result. Even that should be quite acceptable to the Indian public considering the way the visitors have fought back in this most exciting of series with blood thirsty warriors. Meanwhile, India did achieve some of its objectives today.

-- We are playing this match with eight bowlers (Ganguly, Sehwag and Tendulkar included), just like we played the match with eight batsmen (Kumble and Harbhajan included!). So, India must strive to make all their resources count. At times, as we saw at Perth, a big or potentially lethal partnership gets broken by the most underrated of bowlers. India would not have been able to win Kolkatta without Sachin’s three crucial strikes in 2001.

-- Whatever be the situation, put Harbhajan and Ishant from two ends when Ponting is on crease. The best time to get him is early on. One casting a web around him, and the other making him jump with his steep bouncy stuff, should be a sight to behold.

-- Harbhajan says agar pata hota ki aage kya hone wala hai to out na hota, 100 bana leta (Had I known what is going to happen next, I would have not missed out on a hundred). Well, quite a philosophical statement. One must take a leaf out of Bhajji’s book, and enjoy the glorious uncertainties of this series. The wicket is good and an acceptance that Australians can also come up with a big score, will help India plan their winning strategy better.
