Dravid to play in Ranji match

December 30, 2004 19:38 IST

Rahul Dravid has been included in Karnataka team for their Ranji Trophy Elite Group 'A' final league match against Railways beginning at the IAF grounds in Bangalore on Thursday.

"Yes, he is playing," confirmed Karnataka's Manager R Sudhakar Rao.

Dravid cannot change the destiny of Karnataka this season as the five-time former champions have failed to qualify for the semi-finals.

Last weekend, Karnataka suffered a humiliating 205-run defeat at the hands of Mumbai.

The hosts have a tally of six points.

On the other hand, Sanjay Bangar-led Railways are also playing only for pride as the team is also out of the reckoning for a semi-final berth, having tallied only eight points.

But the visitors are high on morale, after scripting a resounding 133-run victory over Andhra in their last encounter at Ananthapur.

Karnataka: Sujith Somasundar (Captain), Barrington Rowland, Robin Uthappa, V S Thilak Naidu (wicket-keeper), Sudhindra P Shinde, Deepak A Chougule, Rahul Dravid, Sunil B Joshi, D Ganesh, R Vinay Kumar, N C Aiyappa, Udit B Patel, C Raghu, Stuart T Binny and C Raghavendra.

Railways: Sanjay Bangar (Captain), Amit Pagnis, T P Singh, Siddarth Varma, J P Yadav, Raja Ali, Siddarth Joshi, Yere Goud K, Harvinder Singh, Parida K, Madan Yadav, Shankar Rao, Shreyas Kanolkar, Sudir Wankhede and Santosh Saxena.
