Indian batting power has been vanished: Boycott

LONDON: Geoff Boycott said that if the English team would go to India next month considering that it can only draw the series there then it would be in fools paradise.

He said that if the English team enters into the ground it would put India in trouble.

In his newspaper column, Boycott further wrote that many front-ranking Indian batsmen have passed through their prime and now they have no power like earlier.

The way in which Sri Lankan spinners Muralitharan and Ajantha Mendis demolished Indian batting line shows that the batting power of India has been vanished and the series against Australia may be the last series for many Indian stalwarts.

Boycott wrote that Steve Harmisson and Flintoff would be main weapons of England team on the tour of India. Though Indian wickets are not more helpful to fast bowlers but the bowlers keeping line and length would certainly be successful.
