Former India coach Greg Chappell will address the out of form Aussie cricketers before the Boxing Day Test on December 26 to make known them the chink in Sachin Tendulkar's armour.
According a report in Daily Telegraph, Chappell will speak to the Australian team next week on how to undertake the likes of Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag in the grueling Test series start in Melbourne.
"Chappell will address the Australian squad for the first Test next week and he is the one man with the information to expose the champion (Tendulkar) Australia never feel they have got to the bottom of," the report said.
"To Australian bowlers Tendulkar has been the master they have never mastered. His record next to Australia in Tests - he averages 60.6 with 11 centuries in 31 Tests - makes him the greatest Aussie basher of his making," it said.
Chappell, in his just free memoirs 'Fierce Focus', has said that Tendulkar was "amazingly fragile" during a particular phase in his career when he had to cope with stressed form and a tennis elbow injury.
According to the report, Chappell, who had a contentious three-year stint as India coach from 2005-07, will be able to give insight into the character of the Indian team as well as the volatile opener Virender Sehwag, a player he greatly well-liked.
