Ganguly keeps his
place in the Test Squad; Dhoni edges out Karthik |
Nov
23, 2005
Sourav
Ganguly has been included in the 15-man squad
for the 1st Test against Sri Lanka starting on
the 2nd December at Chennai as a 'batting all
rounder'. Mahendra Singh Dhoni through his super
man efforts in the One Dayers has been included
in place of Dinesh
Karthik and Rudra Pratap Singh who has
impressed with his pace and control in the One
Dayers gets rewarded with a place in the Test
Squad. The squad for the remaining 2 ODIs
against South Africa is the same that had been
picked for the first 3 ODIs which means that the
Kolkatta crowd wouldn't be watching their hero
Sourav on the field for the 25th ODI.
Zaheer Khan who
has given explosive performances in the Duleep
Trophy Squad missed out to make it to the
squads.
