Dravid will keep: Ganguly

Indian skipper Saurav Ganguly on Sunday said he is keen on returning to the thick of action after a near month-long lay off caused by an abscess on his left-thigh. He will take over from Rahul Dravid in the match against Australia on November 12 to be held here.

8216;8216;It is good to be back after a four week absence from the cricket. It is always a great feeling playing for the country,8217;8217; Ganguly, who arrived here this morning said after a strenuous work-out at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

On the below par performance of Zaheer Khan, Ganguly said: 8216;8216;Zaheer has won India many matches in the past from near impossible positions. Of course, in this tournament he has performed only in patches. Losing form can happen to any player and I hope he will return to his best in the remaining matches.8217;8217;
