Who do you want to win in Aus this upcoming summer?

[Mr Miyagi]

Sri Lanka definitely. After Murali's no balls and Sanga's bad calls, I'd happily see Sri Lanka win. No question.

The next I am more torn on. India touring Australia. Normally I'd favour the tourist but this series is different.

India has never won in Aus. NZ has. And Aus is without its best 2 batsmen in Warner and Smith. But it is Australia.

So who would you prefer to win the series? India or Australia?

The poll is private.

Hopefully the Sydney Sixers.

Man this series won't be fun without Warner.

Warner vs Kohli bout in the staircase would have been the most entertaining thing about yet another high scoring series on roads

Warner is a sydney roosters fan, I don't need to listen to rumour to know that he is in fact a fan of SBW offloads.

This post is offensive to NRL fans.

I just wish Smith and Warner could play.

Winning against a side without them would have a big black mark against it. Losing would be just so pathetic yet typical.

This is the catch 22 for the tourists. Win and everyone will point to the fact that Australia are without their best two batsmen, or worse, lose to a weakened team.

I think there is a mental hurdle to be overcome with winning overseas

If India win now it sets them up with the confidence to win the next time they tour.

Same story every time you play a minnow

Australia tours have always been hard man... In 2003/04 when pitches were super flat and no Mcgrath/Warne, we still needed Dravid and Laxman at their peaks to draw the series.

If we win this without Smith/Warner in the side, it would still be big to me!

Might as well take out the famous 2003 series in Australia then which is pretty much the main reason behind Ganguly's folklore as a leader and that generation's triumph in Australia.

That side had Nathan Bracken and Brad Williams bowling.
