Australia's Assistant Coach Graham Reid feels India would be the most unpredictable team of the upcoming World Hockey League final here.
"We feel that Germany, Belgium and Netherlands are the teams to look out for in the League, but India is the most unpredictable team. The Indian boys can upset any strong team on any given day hence, should be extra careful while playing them," said Reid.
Australia are placed in group B alongside Argentina, Belgium and Netherlands, while India have England, Germany and New Zealand in their pool.
Australia open their campaign against Belgium in the opening match of the tournament on January 10 at the Major Dhyan Chand Stadium here.

Our group is very tough with Belgium and Netherlands in it, but we are confident of playing good and tough hockey," said captain Mark Knowles.
