England v Namibia - Action Replay

Sourav Ganguly might not have scored too many runs. But the Indian skipper made up for that by claiming three Zimbabwe middle-order wickets in a five-over spell during which he conceded just 22 runs. Later after the Indians sealed an emphatic 83-run win, the skipper expressed his happiness at the fact that his team seemed to have regained their spirit and belief. "I know we did badly against Australia but I think some of the reactions to our performance in that game were extreme. We were getting into huddles because we needed to support each other during a tough period. After all, we weren't getting much support from outside the team," the skipper went on to observe with a wry smile.
