Munaf looks a good prospect for world Cup: Dravid

Kolkata, Feb 8 (UNI) Team India skipper Rahul Dravid today heaped praise on paceman Munaf Patel for the form he is showing after returning from injury.

''It is great to see him strike form returning from an injury. He bowled at the right places and had the batsmen thinking,'' Dravid said.

''Munaf bowled at the right line and length. It's a good positive prospect before the World Cup,'' he said.

About the other bowlers getting a stick, he said, ''The pitch was a good batting track and Jayasurya was playing really well. But we pegged them back with nine wickets,'' he added.

While Munaf was the pick of the Indian bowlers with two wickets in his kitty, Jayasurya shone for the Lankans with an unbeaten 63 in the abandoned tie.
