Rafael Nadal, the 10-time Grand Slam champion is looking forward for the Australian Open final clash against the winner of World No. 1 Novak Djokovic or Britain top seed Andy Murray on Sunday at Rod Laver Arena.

The World No. 2 Rafael Nadal has passed to his consecutive Grand Slam champion final at Australian Open 2012, after thrashing his old rival 16-time major title holder Roger Federer in semi finals in four sets with a 6-7, 6-2, 7-6, 6-4. Spaniard, who has been playing better tennis from past season, he is looking one of the huge favorite to bag the championship for second consecutive time in his career.

The 25-year-old Nadal has won the 2009 Australian Open championship for the first time, where he has defeated Roger Federer in best of five sets with a 7–5, 3–6, 7–6(7–3), 3–6, 6–2. Nadal said he likes to play against Andy Murray than Novak Djokovic in the Australian Open final, where he already lost six championship finals to Serbian star including major finals at Wimbledon and US Open.

The former World No. 1 Nadal said Djokovic and Murray are playing their best tennis at the moment, but Djokovic is having most of the possibilities to move to Australian Open final. Djokovic has overwhelmed Scot six of ten times, which includes only Grand Slam battle in 2011 Australian Open final won by Serbian in three sets.
