Ms.Dhoni’s future in T20Is has come under the scanner in recent times, a few former players opined Dhoni should quit T20Is. But there were equal amount backing too, came, to counter the criticism.
While Ganguly the former Indian captain expressed his opinion on the Captain cool. According to Ganguly, the approach of the wicketkeeper-batsman has to change, to continue in T20Is.
"His record in T20I is not that good compared to ODIs. Hope Kohli and team management will speak to him separately. He has immense ability. If he approaches T20Is differently, then he will be successful," said Ganguly.
Although the former captain backed Dhoni in One Day Cricket, where he feels, there is a lot to offer from the wicketkeeper Batsman.
"Definitely not for One-dayers. I think he should keep playing One-day cricket, but he has to play differently in T20Is. He has to play T20Is freely. It depends on the selectors and how they would like to play him," Ganguly said as per quoted by NDTV.
While speaking on Hardik Pandya, who has been rested for the Test Series against Sri Lanka, Ganguly said,"I'm surprised. I don't know if he's injured. He has played only three Tests... This is the age to play. I don't know the exact reason. Hope he's fit.”
Meanwhile, the Test Series against Sri Lanka will begin on November 16 at Eden Gardens, so with Allrounder Hardik Pandya out of the Series, India might have to change their combination for sure. And with the first Test at Eden Gardens, India might not go with 3 spinners according to Ganguly.
"India won't play with three spinners, definitely not at the Eden Gardens as the pitch here is different. They will play with two spinners and now since they don't have Hardik Pandya they may have a different combination for the all-rounders slot."
