Australians working hard to bounce back

New Delhi, Oct 26 (UNI) The Australian team today spend hours at the nets to get back their form before the third Test against India, starting here on October 29.

Spearhead Brett Lee worked hard after his ordinary showing in the first two Tests of the series for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

Lee had a gym session, something captain Ricky Ponting said was geared at getting him back into the muscle and mindset to be a strike bowler, not the stock bowler of his past two matches.

The world champions are concentrating more on their pacers to perform well so that they can distroy the Indian batting line-up to level the series.

Skipper Ricky Ponting, too, with his hard practice indicated that the Aussies are desperate to bounce back in the third Test.

Mitchell Johnson, Stuart Clark, Michel Hussey, Peter Siddle and Symond Katich were here with their bowling coach Troy Collie giving tips to the bolwers.

India is leading the four match series 1-0 after humiliating Australia in the second Test with the stunning 320-run victory in Mohali.
