Durban, Dec 31: Sending a clear message to the faltering opening pair, Indian skipper Rahul Dravid has said he would not hesitate to take tough decisions for the series-deciding third cricket Test against South Africa in Cape Town.

Both the openers - Wasim Jaffer and Virender Sehwag - have been big failures in this series. "Two of our priorities going into the final Test are to look at our top order batting and manage our resources," said Dravid.

He also hinted at a possible change in the bowling line-up, which could see the inclusion of seamer Munaf Patel in the final eleven for the third Test.

South African skipper Graeme Smith termed the 174-run win as a "stand-out" victory during his captaincy. "Among all my wins as captain, this one stands out. Knowing what was going around the team, the light problem in this Test, it has to rank as my best win ," Smith said.
