It's a selector's job at the end of the day: Sourav Ganguly defends Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma after WTC final defeat

Ever since India’s defeat in the WTC final, there have been a lot of questions that have been subjected towards Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid. Fans have expressed displeasure at how the Indian team has performed and somehow, the vitriol isn’t dwindling.

Both Rohit and Dravid have been at the receiving end of some serious flak after India slumped down by 209 runs in the summit clash at the Oval. However, former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has come to the aid of the seasoned duo, defending them as the best in business.

Talking to India Today, Sourav Ganguly said, “It's a selector's job at the end of the day but how does social media influence? Virat himself didn't want to captain Test cricket two years ago. If you ask me who should be and will be India's captain and coach? Rohit and Rahul, that's the right way of all.”

He further added, “Absolutely, at least till the World Cup this will continue. Well, I don't know what's in Rohit's mind after the World Cup and what he wants to do. At the moment the coach and captain are the two best for India and I wish them all the luck.”

India will now be gearing up for the upcoming World Cup that is slated to be played later in the year. They will be hope to shake off those jitters before they enter the tournament as hosts in what will be yet another quest for an ICC trophy.
