We can see the touch of God,his majesty everywhere.In football if it was with Diego Maradona,in cricket he would be there in the offside of Sourav Ganguly.Yes Dada,you are gifted,a natural striker of the cricket ball through the pin hole gap in the offside.
Someone said"Leader is the one who leads from the front...." and Ganguly purely showed it.It was his risk to make a batsman like Sehwag to open the innings,it was his choice to retain Yuvraj,Harbhajan in his team.It was his mind that made Javagal Srinath to come back to the International cricket after his first retirement.Yes, you were always right.It was Ganguly who taught the Indian team to go for the victories than a dead draw in test matches.We say "why take chances?" but Ganguly thought in an another way "If you need victories then why don't you take risks????"
It was he who supported Greg Chappel to be the coach of Indian cricket team after John Wright left that position.Even though it was Greg who criticized the most about Ganguly's performance and always wanted him to be out of the Indian cricket team and atlast he suceeded in his "mission".Here comes the memory of words that Dr.Abdul Kalam one's said "Waves are my inspiration not because they rise and fall but after each fall they rise again...."Ganguly was also like these waves,after his fall from the team he came back like a hurricane.The batting figures shows that in 8 test matches he scored runs with an average of 58.98 including 5 centuries.
(even Sachin Tendulkar doesn't posses this).Even then Ganguly was criticized.They all waited eagerly for a low scoring game of Ganguly even though they got only a few.
