Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly today asked his players to carry forward the success of 2004 to the coming season after the visitors finished the year on a high note with a 2-0 Test series whitewash against Bangladesh.India ended the season with six wins from 11 Tests, which included three series wins -- against Pakistan, South Africa and Bangladesh. "We played very well in 2004, especially in Test cricket. We need to continue in the same vein. We are playing well for the last two and half years. We must carry on," Ganguly said after India's innings and 83-run win over Bangladesh in the second and final Test in Chittagong. The Indian captain credited his teammates for the fine run in Test cricket but said the side needed to be a little more consistent in one-dayers. "They have all done very well. It's really difficult to single out any one person. (Virender) Sehwag, Rahul (Dravid), Sachin (Tendulkar), (VVS) Laxman and (Gautam) Gambhir all played well. "There were failures here and there but that is part and parcel of the game. (Irfan) Pathan was also outstanding," he said. With the Indians scheduled to play three one-dayers against the hosts, Ganguly said the players needed to apply themselves a little more. "We have been a bit inconsistent in one-dayers. Fielding needed to be a bit better. We need to apply ourselves more in the one-dayers," he said. in-depth coverage > Indian Cricket Team's Bangladesh Tour > |
