Indian fast bowler Zaheer Khan has rejected Australian wicketkeeper Brad Haddin's comments that the current India side is mentally weak.
Zaheer Khan has hit back at Brad Haddin's comments about India.Australia currently lead the Border-Gavaskar series 2-0 after winning both of the first two matches in dominating fashion.
The Australian dominance over the visitors has been of such an extent that Haddin has gone on to say that the visitors are a 'fragile side' and the easiest team to break.

In an interview with Sky Sports Radio, Haddin had said: "We know this side can be as fragile as any team in the world if things aren't going their way. And, they can turn on each other and the media turns on them pretty quick.
"We knew if we could keep them out there (in the field) and put the numbers like we did on the board we knew we'd get the rewards because they break quicker than anyone in the world."
As expected, the negative assessment of his side by the Aussie keeper did not please Khan, who has issued some stinging comments of his own.
"Well Brad Haddin, I think he should focus on his keeping, that looked really fragile to me. He needs to start moving. I think, by the sound of it, it looks like Haddin is appointed for that in the Australian team," Khan said.
Australia are 1.66 to defeat India, who themselves are 3.75 to win the third Test. A draw between the two sides can be backed at 5.50.
