India nearly won the last series in Australia was a different story all together. First Australia had a completely screwed up bowling attack, except for final test where Lee and Gillespie were there, that too they were no where near their peak due to injuries. The first 3 tests saw Australia bowl their weakest bowling attack perhaps in a decade and add to it those pitches in those series for strange reasons werent that fast and bouncy and even the ex-australian crickets had critisized the curators for making such pitches.
It is not the same story this time with Australia having groomed the fast bowlers now and neither the pitches will be like those in the last series.
