Excited to lead the side, Ganguly said: "A team which has Kallis and Swann has to be good. There're a lot of current players in my team. So it will be good. It's a good team. It will be fun."
"We have to find the right combination. We've Michael Lumb who's an opener. Kallis obviously will not open. All teams are good. Hope I reach the roof this time," Ganguly said in a lighter vein.
The iconic left-hander recently played for Sachin Blasters in the three-match series against (Shane) Warne's Warriors at the Cricket All Stars in the USA. Ganguly who also scored a half century in the Cricket All Stars in November last year, said he was surprised the way he batted. "I looked at the boundary and told myself, 'Jesus! the boundary looks big, can I clear it...' But when I started hitting strokes it did not feel I had not stopped playing. I was surprised," he said.
