India vs Australia
World Test Championship
First Match \Group 1.

 

[nikish_a]

Welcome to the world for the first match of the world test championship .
Between india and australia
The pitch is a dusty pitch which looks to be a big turnner.
Toss was won by india and elected to bat .
India are going into this match with no ganguly and no tendulkar.
India will have to depend on young shouders for a win and they will like to get off to a good start.
Winning the toss will be good for india as batting last will be very fast.
