New Delhi Dec 13: Batting lower down the
order has denied him several centuries, says former
India captain Sourav Ganguly, who feels VVS Laxman too
has "suffered" in terms of scoring hundreds because of
batting at number six.
"I have batted lower down the order for
a lot of time and Rahul (Dravid) used to bat at number
three and Sachin (Tendulkar) came at four. As a result,
I had to bat at five or sometimes six and I missed quite
a few hundreds because we did not have
wicketkeeper-batsmen like Mahendra Singh Dhoni and
Dinesh Kaarthick earlier," Ganguly told CNN-IBN.
"These guys support people batting at
five or six. But me and (VVS) Laxman suffered in terms
of getting hundreds," he added. (Agencies)
