"Sadly,
in India, the land of spinners, very few are really coming up, so we are
having to fall back on senior bowlers." |
|
Brian
Murgatroyd, media manager of the Australian team. |
|
"Just
because we won the first Test in three days, it doesn't mean that the match
was not hard fought. Sachin is in form and there are quality players like
Ganguly and Dravid who are good fighters." - In an interview to PTI |
|
Sarandeep
Singh |
|
"Bishan
Sir told me that I was bowling allright but I should make sure I didn't
concede any cheap runs to these Australians who are not touch batsmen. Bowling
against a tough side like the Australians is a big challenge." - On his
selection in the Times of India |
|
|
|
"I
told both Sourav and Wright that I had no problems bowling but, when the
question of also contributing in the field and with the bat came up, that
element of uncertainty was there." - Srinath in The Telegraph. |
|
|
|
"Winning
sixteen matches on the trot, does not put any unnecessary pressure on the
team. In fact it only decreases the pressure for us to perform better."
- Talking to PTI at a funtion in New Delhi |
|
|
|
"Hopefully,
I'll make the final eleven and take on things from there. I'll try and make
most of the opportunities I get." - In the Times of India on his selection |

"Eden
Gardens is the best ground in the country. I have never seen Eden Gardens
in better condition. The pitch looks a perfect one." - BCCI pitches committee
chairman Kasturi Rangan in The Statesman. |
