Indian tour more important than Ashes: Katich

Australian batsman Simon Katich reckons his team’s rivalry against India has become “bigger” than the Ashes in recent times and predicts the upcoming Test series in October will be tough for his side.

Katich, who is currently in India leading the Australia ‘A’ team, said beating India at home in 2004 was one of the greatest victories for Australia and the team was geared up to repeat the feat.
