Bangalore: Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni said he would have no problems leading a side which included three former skippers in Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid. "I would walk up to them and seek their advice if the need arose. They are so important to a team like this. We would bank on their experience," he said here on Friday. Dhoni said his reply would be in the affirmative if he was offered the Test captaincy. The India ODI skipper added his side would continue to play aggressive cricket. "There is no pressure on me or the team. We know that Twenty20 triumph is something that has happened. We would need to focus on this series. We will have to play good cricket," he said. Given the dynamics of the day/night games, Dhoni was not willing to reveal his plans if he won the spin of the coin. The pitch, he felt, could assist stroke-play. While he was not willing to discuss strategy, Dhoni said self-belief and confidence were his side’s greatest strengths and the team would not be daunted by Australia’s reputation. — Special Correspondent
