another reason why I am optimistic about this tour because Australia are not as strong as they used to be: This is most probably the weakest International Australia side we have seen since 1996. It is not impossible to beat them. we just have to make sure we do not concede those extra runs and we also have to make sure we have batsmen who can comfortably play all around the park, score runs with ease and confidence. Without trying any extravagant unnecessary shots a batsmen who can play all around the park will easily get his strike rate above 80; This methodology is more than good enough to stay alive in the game and use power-play to its optimum advantage. we are lacking that extra batsmen who can do that.(perhaps Shubhagauto Hom? Kapali? Who knows?)
