The very mention of an India-Australia series invariably revolves around the stylish-yet-defiant VVS Laxman and his epic 281 in the Eden Gardens Test nine years ago.

The senior batsman played the sheet-anchor role as India miraculously turned it around against the Aussies to win 2-1, coming from a match down.

Laxman hopes the innings will continue to inspire the team, though it is important to focus on the present and win the upcoming two-match series, beginning in Mohali on October 1.

Talking to reporters, the Hyderbadi ace said he is personally looking forward to yet another good series against the Aussies.
