BANGALORE, Oct 2: India coach John Wright believes his side can bounce back from their recent dismal one-day form and give Australia a mighty shock in the forthcoming Test series.

India were knocked out of the ICC Champions Trophy by old rivals Pakistan in England last month at the semifinal stage, but Wright says the limited overs setback will have no bearing on the four-match Test series which starts here on Wednesday.

"Now we're back to Test cricket and we've played some very good Test cricket over the last two series," said Wright after the 15-man India squad was named on Friday.

"Sometimes it's difficult to get momentum going in one-dayers and most of the boys are really looking forward to getting into Test mode. I've never had any doubts about this side. I've always had huge trust and enormous belief in their ability."

India have been bolstered by the return of Sachin Tendulkar who has recovered from an elbow injury while Mohammad Kaif and Murali Kartik were also named in the squad for the first two Tests.

Not surpisingly, Saurav Ganguly was named captain for the whole series.

Irfan Pathan, Zaheer Khan and Ajit Agarkar were the three fast bowlers names which meant Ashish Nehra was left out.

"Ashish has done well in one-dayers, but the fact that Ajit has such a good record against Australia went in his favour."-AFP
