Senior off-spinner Harbhajan Singh has rated the current Australian team led by Steve Smith as the "weakest ever" in recent times to tour the Indian sub-continent. In my opinion, looking at the composition, this is the weakest Australian side to tour India. Harbhajan termed the England side which was drubbed 0-4 in the five-Test series in December last year as a better outfit than this Australian team. In India, Ashwin and Jadeja on these tracks will pose far bigger challenge for Smith. (Australia will lose 0-3 if they play well vs India: Harbhajan Singh)Talking about off-spinner Nathan Lyon's role, Harbhajan commented: "I have a lot of respect for Nathan Lyon.
