Sourav Ganguly has cleared a fitness test and is certain to lead the Indian team in their one-day international match against Pakistan on Saturday. Andrew Leipus, the team physiotherapist, put Ganguly through a three-hour practice session and was satisfied that he had recovered completely from the groin strain which had forced him to miss two Tests in the recent series against Australia.
The outcome of the fitness test was largely expected after Ganguly played for Bengal in a Ranji Trophy game earlier this week. He also practised in the nets on Thursday without any discomfort, and declared himself fit after bowling from his full run-up.
