Zaheer Khan is probably India's best fast bowler today. But not against Australia. The way a wayward, overexcited Zaheer started off against the Aussies in the 2003 World Cup final is still fresh in the mind. Many believe India lost the final in that opening over itself. And the left-armer proved that was no aberration by repeating the performance against the world champions in the TVS Cup tri-series clash at Mumbai.

With a tough tour of Australia coming up, this performance by India's pace bowling spearhead is bound to be cause for worry.

Is Zaheer Khan up to it? What do you think goes wrong whenever he plays the Aussies?
