<b>Cricket</b>: Dravid happy with key players

Indian captain Rahul Dravid said that the key players in his team where coming into top form and fitness, which augured well for India's chances at the cricket World Cup.

"Most key players are finding form and fitness which is a good sign for us," Dravid said after a convincing nine-wicket win over the West Indies in the team's final warm-up match before the start of the cricketing extravaganza.

Dravid was very happy with the overall performance of the team, especially the seam bowlers.

"We bowled in the right areas and held our catches. We got to bowl in slightly helpful conditions and made full use of them," a confident Indian skipper said.

Even though conditions may be different in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, where India will play the group matches, today's win was an important result, he said.

"Momentum is important in a World Cup and we are happy with our game at the moment," Dravid added.

His counterpart Brian Lara did not hide his displeasure at his team's display. "I'm not happy with the performance today. It was a bad game and I don't want another performance like this," he said.

Lara expressed concern over the repeated batting collapses and said the team needed to get the problem sorted out. "This has become a chronic issue. In a World Cup, you are allowed one hiccup here and there but we need to get more consistent. We definitely need to regroup after this game," he added.
