Fletcher said India needed to be wary of Australia and complacency would not be good for his team going into the important tour. "If we are in complacent attitude before going there, it is not good for the team. It is important that we go there with the feelings that they have the best of bowling attack and good batsmen in their ranks. We've got to be very wary and put up right kind of performances," said Fletcher of the team who have been inconsistent in the recent past. Collapse in Hobart Australia collapsed to 233 all out from 159 for two to lose the second Test and let New Zealand level the two-match series.u00a0 When asked about Australia's bowling attack, Fletcher said: "We will have to make the decision after we play them. Then we can tell you whether they are the weakest." On his side's bowling line-up, Fletcher observed that seamer Zaheer Khan, who has been included in the squad but is subject to his fitness, looked impressive at the nets and the two side-games prior to the first Test in Melbourne would provide a more accurate update on his fitness. "From the reports that I get, Zaheer had come to Mumbai and bowled at the nets there and he looked impressive. "I think it is very important that he looked to be in very good condition from what we saw in him even when he came to England.u00a0
