Dravid waits to avenge one-day series loss to WI
Friday, September 8 2006 11:24 Hrs (IST) - World Time -

Bangalore: India would seek to avenge its one-day series loss to the West Indies when the two teams meet in the upcoming cricket tri-series in Malaysia, Captain Rahul Dravid said today.

"We haven't done well against the West Indies in the last series. This is a good chance for us to correct that", Dravid says about the tri-series, also involoving Australia.

"I think we are confident. I believe if we play some good cricket, we can get some good results".

Dravid says the event, beginning on September 12, is going to be a challenging series.

"Australia is obviously the best team in the world and it's exciting for us to play against them there. They (Australia) have a very good, proven track record and then they play some very good cricket," he says at the conclusion of a nine-day 'rolling camp' for the team here.

"Even though we are playing against two good teams (Australia and the West Indies), I think if we play good cricket, then we can get some good results".

He says the rolling camp had gone well and the boys are looking forward to play some hard cricket after the washed out tri-series in Sri Lanka.

Dravid says the two practice games slated at Chennai tomorrow and the day-after were aimed at giving the players match-practice and fine-tuning their rhythm, as the team does not expect any warm-up games before the event in Malaysia.
