It is nice Dravid will be fit for first test.If Dravid knew his players were not in form why were they endorsing products instead of practising for the tough tour of South Africa and as far as excess matches is concrened and need for rest we hardly played anything for the last 3 months .Looking at the reaction of Senior team players and the coach they dont seem to be accepting Ganguly in team wilfully.I dnt understand how they say he is not good enough to play for india .looking at recent form even Sehwag and Tendulkar dont look fit to play for India .Dravid should stop arguing that his players are inexperienced ,Sehwag Kaif have played more than 100 matches Raina and Dhoni have played around 50.Then who is inexperienced.Kaif and Sehwag should consider themselves lucky to have played for India in more than 100 matches as there are so many hard working and talented players who are left in the cold.
Dravid,this is a good news to all of us.But I could not understand why you said your in-experienced players were not in form, and they failed.You being a seasoned cricketer, should have realised that before start of the series!and no point blaming that they were unfamiliar to the conditions.Yes, this is the reason we were shouting for inclusion of experienced players, which ultimately got acknowledged by our selection com.please send our young lads in as many tours as you like to get them acclamatised.All this should have been considered earlier and not after the failure!Anyway, we look forward to your promised good performance in test.And for heaven sake, don't do foolish experimentation! Good luck!
