The spin legend, E A S Prasanna, feels that India has 80% chance.
Prasanna, who was part of the famous spin quartet ( Bedi, Chandra, Venkat ) gave some good tips to the Indian spinners.
Tips to Chawla
Chawla should bowl from closer to the stumps and the crease. Not wide of the stumps and away from the crease. That is why he did not get lbw decisions in his favour.
Tips to Bajji
"He should flight the ball with more deception. He is now our number one spinner and should attack the batsmen without thinking of containing them.
"His aim should be to get the batsman out, not contain him."
He felt that Ashwin may not get much opportunities.
Prasanna scalped 189 wickets in 49 Tests with his indippers and controlled flight. His advice should be revered.
He disagreed with the majority view that Indian bowling is relatively weak when compared to the formidable batting lineup.
"There is a lot of variety in our bowling. The attack will revolve around Zaheer Khan. He has good supporting bowlers in Shantakumaran Sreesanth and Ashish Nehra, besides Munaf Patel. And then we have part time bowlers like Yuvraj Singh and Virender Sehwag."
This is vintage Dhoni. He just hit 5 consecutive fours and seven on the trot. Raina hit three sixes in an Oram over. India 298/4 off 45 overs!
