India has in it to beat Aussies: Yuvraj

Chennai, March 20: Indian batting star Yuvraj Singh reckons that India have a good chance to beat Australia in the World Cup as the defending champions are not the same intimidating force due to retirements of some key players.

India set up the last-eight clash with Australia on Thursday after pummeling West Indies by 80 runs today with Yuvraj putting up a fine all round show by scoring his maiden World Cup century and taking two wickets.

“They have won five games. The teams are equal at the moment. Whosoever plays better on the particular day will win the match. No doubt, Australia is a top side having won the title for last three years.

“However, players like Glenn McGrath, Shane Warne, Adam Gilchrist are not there in the team. Ricky Ponting has not been in his form.
