Ganguly in playing XI as an opener

Lahore: In a surprise development Sourav Ganguly will partner Virender Sehwag in Lahore Test.

The move is set to create ripples as Ganguly was picked up to bolster the Indian middle order.

India, looking to maintain its No 2 position in the ICC Test rankings, will take on arch-rival Pakistan in the first Test of the three-match series staring from Friday at Lahore’s gaddaffi stadium.

But on the eve of the match Indian skipper Rahul Dravid did not disclose his cards and merely said that although the playing XI had been finalised but he would not divulge the same for strategic reasons.

:salam: Am new to this forum. Am an Indian supporter.

I wish both teams good luck!

Can’t wait for tomorrow!

Walikum Assalam. Welcome to GS/KK from all of us. We sincerely hope you have a great time here.

As far as the report, what a surprise! I immediately checked CricInfo, and they still haven’t updated it yet. Soon, hopefully.

The report also mentions that Dravid will not release the team’s information until just before the toss.
