Dravid said that the team has achieved its goals from the series and would like to rotate some players. However, Dravid’s comment did not go down well with former Pakistan batsman Salman Butt.

Butt further said –

“At this moment, all the conversations should be around the third ODI and how to win it. If someone asks a different question, you can say that it has got nothing to do with the match. He has talked a lot about combinations, this shouldn’t be so frequent.”
