Motivation not a problem: Ganguly

Sports Reporter
Life as Indian captain has brought many memorable moments for Sourav Ganguly but there is a special corner in his heart for an event four years ago at the Bangabandhu National Stadium (BNS).
"Obviously it is still fresh on my mind because it was not only Bangladesh's inaugural Test but also my first Test as captain," said the 32-year-oid who had since inspired Indian cricket to scale new heights with his passionate and gritty leadershipqualities.
"To be honest we were bothered by the first three days’ performance when they scored 400 runs in the first innings and in response we lost
six wickets for 200. I thought Bangladesh did very well in then-first appearance," recalled Ganguly during a media conference at the BNS yesterday following the.Tourists' first practice session in the morning.
India finally won that match by nine wickets and are overwhelming favourites to repeat another easy sail in the two-Test series but the star from Bengal ruled out complacency getting in the way.
"It is the Test matches where performances count I don't think we will have any problems motivating ourselves."
Unlike a section of the* interna-* tional media and cricket experts,
Ganguly s views on Bangladesh s cricket was refreshingly positive.
" I have seen a lot of bright things in Bangladesh's cricket and especially the people are very much involved in the game. I believe they have definitely come forward as a side and you just have to give them time like any other Test side when theystarted."
Ganguly brushed aside suggestions that records will be on their minds when the first match starts.
"You can't go into a Test match concentrating on records. I don't think we will go out there thinking about records tomorrow," he said.
Leg-spinner Kumble will need only one wicket to become the highest Test wicket taker for India. The 34-year old now shares the record with the great Kapil Dev with both taking 434 wickets.
On the other hand master batsman Sachin Tendulkar is only one century shy of joining his compatriot Sunil Gavaskar as Test ticket's most century holder.Tendulkar has 33 tons in 118 Tests and the 31-year old master batsman is just 405 runs short ofentering the elite 10,000-run club.
