In India, your heart guides you more than your head.  I have heard this statement many times and it may well be the difference between who wins the Border Gavaskar Trophy next month.

In Australia, this series has now surpassed the Ashes for the most eagerly anticipated Test cricket event.  The time zones lend themselves to prime-time viewing and the love/hate relationship that Australian cricket now has with India is compelling.  India is now seen as the last frontier where reputations (and fortunes) are made.  It’s a far cry from the old adage that you had to score runs in Australia before you were considered a true Test batsman—it’s now equally true of succeeding in India.
