Laxman should bat at No. 3: Stuart Law

HYDERABAD: Former Australian batsman Stuart Law has a word of advice for the Indian think-tank.

“This is the right time for V.V.S. Laxman to bat at No.3 and India should start using Sourav Ganguly at No.6 in Test matches to obtain better results. In my view, after Sachin, Laxman is developing into the best batsman from the sub-continent,” he said on the sidelines of the Indian Cricket League camp now in progress at Lahari Resorts here on Thursday.

“Since Ganguly is capable of big hits like Adam Gilchrist, and has to do quite a bit of bowling too, he should be more suited for the No.6 slot. This will also give Laxman more opportunities to come up with big scores,” said Law.

Inzamam-ul-Haq who will be leading Hyderabad Heroes in the ICL, said that the Twenty20 format is suited to him because of his age.

“I am keenly looking forward to the event to begin on Nov. 30. Once that happens, you will see the huge difference,” he said. — Principal Correspondent
