Well it seems the opening test of this series between Australia and India has been a long time coming but we are finally here, on the eve of the first test at the Adelaide, Oval. Rahul Dravid, former Indian player said that its gonna be quite an emotional, atleast first day without a doubt, so its been a sad time and a time of reflection for a lot of people across world cricket. Especially for the players, lots of the Australian players who would have known Phil Hughes closely and who would actually part of that match in which the unfortunate incident happened. Lots of the Indian players as well, the fact that they've been in Australia during that whole week and the period that is in the lead after this test match will mean that its quite of emotional start to the test match and especially the first day.
Virat Kohli was add to the funeral of Phillip Hughes, quite emotionally about his friendship and what that mean to him to go. When He was asked about Virat Kohli's taking on test captaincy at this time, there is been a lot of talk this way from fellow teammates & from Virat himself about how he's likely be a more aggressive captain, Perhaps we've seen from MS Dhoni. Rahul Dravid said that remains to be seen, He, whether he's gonna be aggressive captain, he's definitely going to be a more demonstrative captain. We've seen with Dhoni that He's quite chilled out & quite relax, we don't really get to see a lot of his emotions on a cricket field. But that's not the case with Virat, What's there He's gonna late on the line, He's what you see that what you get with Virat, So He's definitely going to be a lot more demonstrative whether He's a lot more aggressive in terms of fields placings & the way He plays the game, That's going to be the interesting thing to see. He's young Captain, finding his way, He knows it's going to be only one match, MS Dhoni is already here, will be sitting in the dressing room, so how that plays out will be interesting in itself. You know what happens in terms of tactics, go back at lunch time & talk to Dhoni about them. I hope that He's his own man & takes his own decisions & backs himself. 
Shane Watson and Mitchel Marsh, These both are in the Australian Squad, Well it's something looking back of Shane Watson's career particularly something that you wonder why hadn't actually been tried before, the whole Idea that Shane Watson being a top order batsmen who can bowl a few overs and also has a slowly temperamental body. It's always been handy to have that extra bowler someone like Andrew McDonald, & He's going to bowl, might have been able to perform and something like that. But Mitchel Marsh is come through, Impressed everyone in the UAE but didn't necessarily show in the wickets that He took they're impressed with that sort of bowling that He could deliver and think in Australian conditions will be better. Plus obviously his batting in the UAE was very good in conditions unfamiliar to him, so Mitchel Marsh and Shane Watson together, It will be very complementary and I also look for Shane Watson that quite a bit serious because like Brad Haddin and Mitchel Johnson's last summer, He comes into this series and someone quite fresh physically He's had sometime away from the game He didn't go on the tour of UAE, didn't go to Zimbabwe. These two All-rounders makes a big change in the Australian team.
