Australia Holds the Edge against India before Hyderabad One-Dayer

Indian team will be looking to avenge their defeat from the Australians in the 4th ODI of the Hero Honda Cup, when they take the field in Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel Stadium, Hyderabad on Thursday.

Poor batting show has been the downfall of the Indian side with Sehwag, Sachin, Raina, Kohli and Jadeja being totally out of form. The onus has been mainly on Yuvraj and Dhoni to perform well, but whenever they have failed, Indians have run out of answers. Again, Harbhajan has been a total disappointment in the series so far. He has gone for far too many runs for a bowler of his caliber. Fielding was the only serving grace in the 24-run defeat at Mohali. They would need a complete performance, in case a positive result is to be expected from them in the 5th ODI.

Meanwhile, Australian Captain Ricky Ponting would be looking for his later middle order to contribute more with the bad. Ponting along with Hussey, White and Watson have made an impact on Indian Bowling, but others have given up woefully. However, bowling has been quite wonderful, especially Bollinger, Haritz and Siddle (who is returning back home after he sustained an injury).

With not much separating India and Australia in both the ICC ODI Rankings and Hero Honda Cup, you can expect a slobber-knocker of a game in Hyderabad. Australians will have the upper hand, as they defeated India in the previous meeting at the venue.
