India vs Australia LIVE: Ponting predicts winner

Ricky Ponting has backed his former team to emerge victorious in the third Test against India at Brisbane, despite recent losses to India and West Indies at the venue. “It is really hard to say what to expect after the way the first two games have gone. I mean, they have been complete blowouts either way, so you do not really know what to expect. I have got a feeling it will be a bit more of an even contest than the first couple of games. I still think Australia will win,” he added.

The India skipper has not been in the best of forms lately and confusion remains over whether he will continue in his role as the No. 6 batter or he will be opening the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal. A change for him will also mean that KL Rahul will have to bat in the middle order.
