Ganguly to miss fourth Test also
MUMBAI, Oct 31: Indian captain Saurav Ganguly will miss this week's fourth and final Test against Australia after failing to recover from a groin injury.
"I am out of the match," Ganguly told Reuters on Sunday. "I'm not able to run at all, so I can't play."
The 32-year-old trained with the rest of the Indian squad on Sunday but looked shaky while batting in the nets.
In his absence, Rahul Dravid will continue to lead the team. The match starts in Mumbai on Wednesday.
Ganguly had missed the third Test in Nagpur.
India, who dropped Aakash Chopra, Yuvraj Singh, Ajit Agarkar and Parthiv Patel for the Mumbai Test, have brought in four uncapped players - openers Gautam Gambhir and Dheeraj Jadhav, paceman Shib Shankar Paul and wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik.- Reuters
