KOLKATA: Former India captain Sourav Ganguly insisted that Mahendra Singh Dhoni must persist with batting at No 4 which can enable him and Virat Kohli could play the finishers' role.
"Let him play at number four. He will finish from there. Finisher does not mean he has to bat from the 40th over. Virat (Kohli) bats at three and he is finishing games. It's a wrong concept that a finisher has to come lower down the order. Dhoni got India over the ropes in the other match batting at four," Ganguly stated on the sidelines of Cricket Association of Bengal's tie up with VLCC on Thursday.
New Zealand defeated India by 19 runs whilst protecting 260 in Ranchi on Wednesday, in a fit India's premier batsman were given out for 45.
Ganguly on the other hand stated India weren't changing into too much over depending on Kohli.
"He (Virat Kohli) is an excellent player, but I don't think the team is becoming too dependent on him. New Zealand is a good side. They will win some matches also," he stated.
The CAB earlier joined arms with VLCC for promotion of cricket and different sports activities in the districts. This can be a two-year deal that will allow CAB to promote cricket and different sports activities.
