Dada Supports Ponting On "Walk On" Issue !

Sourav Ganguly supported Ponting's view that walking can be a bad idea, especially in a big game like Thursday's quarterfinal between Australia and India in Ahmedabad.

"Sachin has never done that in the past, let's be honest, and he shouldn't because there have been times when he has been given out and he was not out," Ganguly said.

"At the end of the career, it balances. I think it's fair for everyone to wait for the umpire's decision, including Sachin Tendulkar," he added.

"It could be a big game India 100 for three, Tendulkar batting on 55, he's holding the key to India's success. I would really not want him to walk unless an umpire has given him out," Ganguly said.

"He needs to stick to the umpire's decision. Whether he does that consistently, we'll have to wait and see," he added.
