Aust facing whitewash

HYDERABAD, India - Australia have won only one Test series in India in four decades and no one has been ranking Michael Clarke's inexperienced side up there with Adam Gilchrist's all-star line-up of 2004.

However, with two big losses in the opening two matches, Clarke's men are not only unable to win the series but retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with a 2-2 scoreline looks a long shot.

Tuesday's defeat by an innings and 135 runs was Australia's first by an innings since the 2010/11 Ashes series.

And the skipper doesn't appear to have many answers on how to fix things, apart from moving himself from No.5 into the top four of the batting line-up.
