    Aussies bowling is quite good. It's the batsmen that suck beyond redemption.

    Clarke's post match speech he spoke as if that they are going to lose the last match also but only trying to reduce the margin of defeat. I expect Eng top order will click once and win by an innings..

    Senthil - You are correct! Aussies batting is currently very bad and inconsistent. Watson is out of form, Khawaja, Warner, Smith ellam namba mudiyaadhu. Rogers is somewhat ok. Exclude Clark, its more like a Bangladesh line up.

    Bowling on the other hand definitely better than Indians, though its 3-0, England struggled against Siddle / Harris. Overall its not that bad Ashes for Aussies, better than our 4-0 shame.

    Yes. Except second match they always had chances to win. That was not the case of India.

    Mike Hussey's presence would have made huge difference in the results.

    I don't agree with this. They are still an aggressive team with no right skills (especially the batting unit) to get the results like their oldies. They don't look so defensive in this series. The chances they have got in this series so far were all created by themselves only. Hope they find good batting unit and a decent spinner soon.
