Despite a stalemate draw, the Delhi Test witnessed outstanding cricket, controversy and an emotional farewell. Now we shift our focus to Nagpur where the fourth and final Test of the series will take place. Big blow for the hosts ahead of this match as Gautam Gambhir who is India's most prolific run-scorer in the series has been ruled out. The left-hander is serving a one-match ban by the ICC after his elbow incident with Shane Watson. So it will be interesting to see who will get the opportunity as an opener in the side. Will it be Tamil Nadu batsman Murali Vijay who has been drafted into the squad or Badrinath who was benched for the previous three Tests? Also remember, that India cannot lose the series as they have an unbeatable 1-0 lead. Australia on the other hand must have revived great confidence from the Kotla Test. Their top-order batsmen were among the runs and also their fast bowler looked in good rhythm. Expect the 'Baggy Green' team to bounce back hard in the final Test to level the series and retain the coveted Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It will also be an end of the era as Sourav 'Dada' Ganguly will be bidding farewell to international cricket after this game. Stay tuned..
