The Indian team have outplayed the Australians in the first two Tests of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The third Test will be taking place in Indore on March 1. Former India captain Sourav Ganguly feels that Australia will be clean-swept by the Indian team. "I see 4-0. It will be hard for Australia to beat India. In these conditions, we are a far superior team," Ganguly was quoted as saying to Rev Sportz.

Former Australian great Greg Chappell has criticized the team's below-average performance in the first two Tests against India and said,” punched themselves in the mouth long before the first ball was even bowled".

After being thrashed in the first two Tests by the Indians, Australia have already lost Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

"It was Mike Tyson who said in the lead-up to a fight with Evander Holyfield: Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

"My concern after watching the first two Tests is that the Australian team punched themselves in the mouth long before the first ball was even bowled," Chappell wrote in the Sydney Morning Herald.

"It is one thing to plan, but to base that plan on a flawed premise is an exercise in futility," he added.
