Sourav Ganguly WAS a great player. Gone are his golden days and most of his shots y'day where either edges or leg byes. It was again funny to see him getting run out. Don't forget the catch which he dropped off Yousuf who ended up making 83 with a SR of 100. Sachin took two wickets but failed with bat. Zaheer khan was very expensive. It is not quit clear that ganguly is playing for his place in the team. Getting out on 30s and 40s and then getting ducks on the following innings is not a sign of GREAT player. Something BCCI Dhoni needs to do in future matches : * Remove Sachin, Zaheer and Ganguly for at least this ODI series. * Give chance to Rohit Sharma and Praveen Kumar. Unless the youngster gets chances how would they establish themselves in the international arena?? * Gambhir and Uthappa should open. If Uthappa or Gambhir fails, Praveen Kumar can open the way he opens for Uttar Pradesh. * Irfan Pathan should bowl his natural swingers rather than the let or off cutters. This would help him in Australia also. * Uthappa should understand his responsibilities and play sensibly long innings.
We need some consistent performers like Symonds and Hayden and no paper tigers like ganguly and tendulkar. Time to try for some
