Former captain Sourav Ganguly on Monday said Team India have the ability to beat Australia in the World Cup quarterfinals in Ahmedabad on Thursday, maintaining 'M.S. Dhoni's men are a better side'.
Sourav's team had lost to Aussie skipper Ricky Ponting's side in both the league match and the final in WC 2003.
On being asked if India can beat Australia in what is being called a revenge game, Sourav told Headlines Today Executive Editor Rahul Kanwal, "Yes, there is no doubt about it. India have a good chance of beating Australia. India is a better side."
Speaking on India's prime hope against the Aussies, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav said, "I don't mind him failing against the West Indies. Every time he has got out cheaply, he comes out all guns blazing (referring to his two centuries against England and South Africa in this WC) in next match. I hope to see him putting India in a good position against the Aussies."
Tendulkar had failed to score big in both the games in WC 2003, when India won all their matches, except against the Aussies.
India's only WC winning captain Kapil Dev also said, "They have the ability to do it (beat the Aussies)."
