Australia (Playing XI): Matthew Hayden, Simon Katich, Ricky Ponting(c), Michael Clarke, Mike Hussey, Shane Watson, Brad Haddin(w), Cameron White, Brett Lee, Mitchell Johnson, Stuart Clark
India (Playing XI): Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Saurav Ganguly, VVS Laxman, Mahendra Singh Dhoni(w), Anil Kumble(c), Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma
Team Information: Cameron White has been handed a test debut. Watson is back in whites after 3 years. The Indian side looks very much the same as it was in Sri Lanka. Dhoni replaces Parthiv Patel who played in the Emerald Island.
Pitch Report: This looks like a batting beauty to L.Sivaramakrishnan. There are a few cracks around but at the same time there is a tinge of green too. The pitch has a bit of moisture because of the sweating caused by the covers overnight. So there will be something for the quickies early on and having lost the toss, the Indians will want to exploit it.
