Bangalore: After the announcement of retirement from Saurav Ganguly, it will be a testing game for other senior players to prove their mettle. Even though they have proved their strength at many occasions and played major roles in Indian victory but this time they are under pressure of their own landmarks.
They have to show once more that they have not created these landmarks by chance, but by their sheer diligence, class and ability. Sachin is feeling fit and looked good at practice sessions. Dravid scored some runs in practice matches and seemed to be very confident, and hoping to show that he is really a wall of Indian team.
Sourav must be feeling relaxed after his retirement announcement but will surely like to end his career with a high note.
Kumble is a struggled, he works very hard and in this series he wants to prove that his retirement time has not yet come. Laxman on the other has got a very good chance to prove that he still has a class in him and he can bat for long innings.
