Aussie pacers plan to be patient to succeed in India

8220;Patience is definitely going to be a word that we will be using through the whole Test series. I just think the key to bowling over here, going on what you read and what you hear from past players, is to be nice and patient,8221; Lee was quoted as saying by the 8216;Herald Sun8217;.

Lee, who needs three wickets to pass Craig McDermott 291 as Australia8217;s fourth highest Test wicket-taker, is aware of the fact that he is the spearhead of the Aussie bowling attack.

8220;We are up against world class batsmen, we are up against wickets that aren8217;t going to be conducive to fast bowling, and the weather is going to be really hot.

8220;We have to try as a team to block all that stuff out and just really focus on the way we know, to be nice and patient.8221; he said.

Lee8217;s colleague in the pace department Stuart Clark said in Indian conditions, pacers need to maintain discipline to be successful.

8220;I think the wickets become harder to bat on. They don8217;t bounce, there is no pace in them and they don8217;t carry,8221; Clark said. 8220;LBW and bowled become a really useful mode of dismissal, rather than just caught. In Australia a lot of the guys get caught behind the wicket. Bowled and lbws are a big way of getting out over here,8221; he said.

8220;We have to work long and hard for four or five days. If we can do that, then we will be a chance at the end,8221; he added.
