Dravid is Back!!

Yea, The Indian selectors named Rahul Dravid as captain for the one-day series against Sri Lanka and South Africa. Hope Dravid does well and more importantly lets hope this is not a stop-gap arrangement!!
Fingers crossed.
If the selectors are to believed this a'int a temporary arrangement, and Gangs is out of captaincy for good!!
This is what Cricket Board Secretary S K Nair has to say...

Cricket Board Secretary S K Nair, after an hour's meeting of the National Selection Committee here, said the Committee's decision was unanimous and had nothing to do with the injury to Ganguly.

"It has nothing to do with Ganguly. He will be considered as a player depending on the (fitness) report which will be submitted by the physio John Gloster on the 17th (October)," Nair said after the meeting.

Asked if the decision to appoint Dravid as captain meant the selectors desired a change, Nair said, "Obviously, when it is a different name, it means a change".
Hmm let's see!!
The squad for the first two matches of the Sri Lanka series would be announced on Friday.
