'I was surprised Dravid opened'

VB Chandrasekar, national selector who is on his way to Pakistan to join the Indian team-management, said that he was surprised to see Rahul Dravid open the batting in the first Test. In an interview with the newschannel CNN-IBN he also talked about his role as a selector in the touring party.

Little surprised, yes. But from the outcome of what happened from the 410-run partnership, I think probably it was right and if India had batted first, I think the depth in the middle-order would have been so deep.
