Dada!! :)

I'm happy Sourav Ganguly is retiring from cricket. Not because i wanted him to retire but rather i wanted him to do it when he is in the team and sign off with a memorable high note. He deserves respect for what he has done to Indian cricket. I've been a huge huge fan of him all these 12 years gone by that he has been playing (leaving out the 93 season! I hardly knew who he was then!). He's been a master stroking left-hander, superb captain, comeback man, aggressive cricketer and a delight to watch too. :)

Today morning when i read in cricinfo's site on this i was in for a shock! I knew somewhere this is bound to happen today or tomorrow as he is a aging normal human. And he has to retire and make way for his successors in the team. But who? This is important phase of Indian cricket that we'll see in another couple of years. With the seniors of the game in Indian team are all set to retire now (Sachin i doubt will retire ever! Ha) it's quite interestingly poised.

Lets look at something done by 'dada' during his interesting career here. Quite interesting. :) Atleast for me.

Two things that i would like to say here before i stop this post. One, nothing comes to the timing of the off side shots of Ganguly and second, the aggression he bought into the team as a character cost him his spot in the team eventually. :)
