However, he has not played a Test for India for over dual years right away as good as if a direction continues it would many expected pave a approach for Praveen Kumar’s inclusion in a Test team.
In a use session, manager Fletcher appeared penetrating to collect up a smarts of Dravid as good as Dhoni.
Fletcher had pronounced progressing which he was seeking brazen to guidance from group with such resources of experience.
Dhoni was between a early bats to desk pad up though afterwards sat in a shade for prolonged whilst others took their spin underneath a boiling sun.
