The second and final cricket test between India and Australia will be held at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore from tomorrow. Team India, leading 1-0 after the win in Mohali, can expect a tough challenge from Australians. India with world's best batting line-up including Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Virender Sehwag and VVS Laxman and captain MS Dhoni is quiet confident and said two day's of practice session in the city had been beneficial. The fully-fit Zaheer Khan will spearhead the bowling attack with Harbhajan Singh.Tamil Nadu Opener M Vijay and Kerala Speedster S Sreesanth are most likely replacements, though Abhinav Mukund and Jaydev Unadkat have been included in the squad. Reflecting on the exciting first Test, Aussie captain Ricky Ponting said his team had displayed how good they are at the five-day game at Mohali and will play with the same intensity and will use all resources at the team's disposal to level the series. Left-arm fast bowler Doug Bollinger, who came up with an impressive figure in Mohali, is doubtful for tomorrow's game as he has not recovered from a side strain.
