if she has filed for divorce you can deny all her allegations made in her petition and if she has caused cruelty to you, you can file the written statement and in the written statement you can file a counter claim for divorce to be granted to you based on the point that it is the wife who has caused cruelty. please note you have to mention everything in that written statement as if you are filing a fresh petition and also have to pay court fees, etc and specifically mention that you are filing a counter claim.
