D/N Test the future, India will do well if they play, feels Ganguly
Kolkata, May 10 (CRICKETNMORE) - Stating that Day-Night Test is the future, former India captain Sourav Ganguly on Thursday said India have enough quality to tackle the pink ball, also hinting that sooner or later Virat Kohli and Co. will
Ganguly also expressed his surprise at the Indian selection committee's decision to ignore Ajinkya Rahane for the ODI series in England.
"I am surprised Rahane is not in the team. He should have been in the team. He has been moved around too much, he is a quality player," he said.
Coming to the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), Ganguly said it would be difficult for city-based Kolkata Knight Riders to make a comeback after suffering consecutive defeats at the hands of Mumbai Indians in the space of three days. KKR now have a poor net run rate and are out of top four in the points table with three games to go.
"KKR are the good team but it looks difficult from here on. They have lost back to back games."
Ganguly also refused to read too much into rookie stumper batsman Ishan Kishan's 21-ball 62 which helped Mumbai beat KKR by 102 runs on Wednesday here, saying he has to do it on a consistent basis.
