Few scenarios on the plate. I dont think Sharjah is conducive enough for a smacking or thrashing which will spell bad news for Indian fans.
What gives India a bit of hope is NZ didnt look all that convincing in the chase today against Sri Lanka, you just never what happens under pressure given qualification for the semis on the line. NZ had the chance to step on the gas a bit more and didnt.
Having said that I do give this Indian side a chance to win tomorrow given the Aussie injuries and who knows if India did manage to post 150 as mentioned by Cricinfo, maybe for the Aussies it might be 'damage limitation'?( A 61 run loss or less will be good enough for the Aussies to make the semis.)
The Sharjah wicket is a leveller between 2 good sides. Slow outfield, thinking it will be a used wicket, and I dunno think.......it gives Indias spinners a real chance. Its also interesting that India get to play the game here, definitely do feel a game in Dubai favours Australias style of game.
