India 10/3 for consolation win at Mumbai

India are 10/3 to beat Australia at Mumbai in the fourth and final Test which begins on Tuesday. Australia are evens favourites to win and record a 3-0 series win, the draw is 7/4.

Man of the Match
Ricky Ponting is back for the final Test of the series and he has been immediately installed as the highest-rated batsman in the Man of the Match market. With the pitch expected to favour the spinners, India could go in with a three-pronged spin attack. Murali Kartik is 20/1, while Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh are joint-favourites at 15/2

Shane Warne has 14 wickets so far in the series, behind Kumble (21) and Harbhajan (16), but is certainly worth a look at 8/1 in this market.

The Australian pacemen have been one of the major differences between the sides, and both Glenn McGrath (18/1) and Australia's leading series wicket-taker Jason Gillespie (16/1) offer good outsider value.

Top Team Batsman
With the exception of Virender Sehwag (7/2) India's established batsmen have struggled throughout the series. Gautam Gambhir may get his chance opening the batting, and he is 11/2 to top-score for India in their first innings.

Sachin Tendulkar is playing at his home ground, and the Little Master is 3/1 favourite in the Top Indian Batsman (First Innings) market. Sachin averages an impressive 63.9 at his home ground, and top-scored in both innings when India last met Australia here in 2001.

For Australia, the runs have been flowing. There were tons for Matthew Hayden and Adam Gilchrist in 2001 - Hayden is 7/2 favourite to top-score for Australia in the first innings in spite of a very average tour by his standards. Just one 50 so far is way short of his own high output and Hayden will expect himself to put that right at Mumbai.

Adam Gilchrist again offers excellent value at 17/2 in this market. Michael Clarke is 11/2 - he has 376 runs so far at an average of just over 75 and Damien Martyn is in great form and is certainly worth considering at 5/1.
