Kolkata: Former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly says incumbent MS Dhoni should get adequate rest to be fresh for the team’s long series Down Under.
“The true test of captaincy is outside India. But I think the time has come to give a rest to Dhoni. He played a lot of cricket. He plays all versions of the game. He deserves a rest,” Ganguly said in an interview to a Bengali channel Star Ananda here.
“I think he has to be given rest in the West Indies series so that he can go to Australia very fresh. Because in Australia the Indian captain has to be fresh, otherwise there will be a repetition of the England tour,” he said. India will tour Australia for a Test series starting in Melbourne Dec 26.
