Match Notes

Australia tour of India 2004-05 News

  • Once upon a twinkle-toed debut

    A little over eight years ago, a young Australian made a dream debut in Bangalore. Now he returns as captain

  • Once upon a series

    The Australian approach on the fourth day may have been negative or pointless to some but it was clear that lessons had been learnt from the debacles at Kolkata [2001] and Adelaide [2003]

  • Saving Grace

    Everything's peachy when Damien Martyn is finessing his square-cuts to the fence, but things weren't always so rosy

  • 'I'm still the same fighter'

    The wounds inflicted by the Australians are very fresh on Harbhajan Singh's mind

  • Trader's tips from Sporting Index

    Both teams come in to this series with recent series wins under their belts, although New Zealand's victory over Bangladesh doesn't quite rate alongside a win in India
