"We are confident that the national team will return to its dominant ways sooner than later," he has remarked in the BCCI's annual report for 2010-11. Manohar also acknowledged that the Indian team was going through a transition time and has suggested that the senior players in the national team should guide the juniors before handing over the reins.

"This is a transition time in Indian cricket. We have players who are in the twilight of their respective careers."
