Kolkata, Dec 31 (IBNS): Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly on Monday attacked the Australian cricket and said the country's selection is currently hitting "its lowest" point.

"Australian cricket selection at its lowest ever .. greats have to put teams in their Instagram posts to give direction," Ganguly tweeted.

Ganguly issued the message on his Twitter page with a screenshot of a post made by ex-Australian skipper Steve Waugh on his Instagram page where he had suggested his batting order for the Sydney Test.

India defeated Australia in the Melbourne Test by 137 runs to go 2-1 up in the series.

The fourth Test match of the series will be played in Sydney.

Ganguly, considered as one of the successful skippers of India,  had played 113 Tests and 311 ODIs for the national side.

He retired in 2008 after playing his last Test match against Australia in Nagpur.

He is currently the president of the Cricket Association of Bengal
