Former India pacer Karsan Ghavri is of the opinion that Australia will definitely fightback from their defeat at Adelaide. At the same time, he also feels that India now have the upper hand in the series.

"We are up 1-0 in Australia right now and there are three more Tests to go. But I will not be surprised there will be a big fight on the field from the Australian team. They will fight back. But I can tell you we have an upper hand. We have an advantage of being a great team," Ghavri was quoted as saying in a PTI report.

India had a great start to their series in Australia with a 31-run triumph. Ghavri was all praise for Cheteshwar Pujara, terming him the new Wall. "Cheteshwar Pujara is the wall after Rahul Dravid’” he further said.

"His wicket is a very prized wicket one in Test cricket. Like when Rahul Dravid used to play, his wicket was a prized wicket. As long as he delivers the goods, it's great for Indian cricket," Ghavri, once Kapil’s new-ball partner, said.

The teams now more to Perth for the second Test.
