RE:reply to krishnendu mukherjee

Hi,
A single person does not win matches... Why are you checking just against Australia??? Please check his records against South Africa as well.... With an average of 50.50, 8 fifties and 3 hundreds, he has scored 1313 in 29 matches.... That is good.... Has Tendulkar scored all his centuries against Australia/South Africa?? Boss everyone scores against weak opponents...... When Ganguly hit three centuries in WC 2003, the teams were poor but no one else scored... Also Kenya reached Semifinals.... Why would you call them a poor team when bigger giants themselves could not reach the semifinals... It was the fourth best team then... (In the tournament) and he hit 2 centuries against them???

The basic thing is that you do not like Ganguly as I do not like Tendulkar... The reason is simple... He got too much attention than Tendulkar during 1999-2001 (he hit most of his centuries in these years) and that's why people who worship Tendulkar (even if he is not consistent as in last 2-3 years) cannot bear Ganguly......

Cheers
Himanshu Joshi
