Ganguly is a leader. Blunt, forceful, fighting, nonchalant and most importantly a gifted cricketer. Some one who changed Indian cricker forever with his arrogance, devil-may-care attitude, his mentoring skills and who can discount his eat-a-spinner-for-breakfast attitude ? We are proud to have him around. We need more like him ( and sorry Mr.Chappel..:).
We have remarkably great players like Tendlya, Kumble , Dravid and had people like Kapil and Srinath in our team. But Dada is unique. He toils, fights and wins. God bless Indian cricket. Let the next world cup be ours.
Sourav is the best may be not for record but because he gave india one of the best teams.The present team is formed by him which did so well and also won Twenty20 world cup
Though Mahatma Gandhi is the Father of the Nation but without Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, India's freedom was a nightmare.
Though Sachin Tendulkar is the best cricketer India has ever produced but without Sourav Ganguly, India's cricket at such high international level was a nightmare.
Yes Sourav has some thing which makes him unique, when he was in form, he has played the best of the innings, any every body has to retire soday, it is good that DADA is retiring with a Glory of good finishin Innings. Good Luck Sourav for your rest of Life Innings.

Champion Captain - Adieu!!& Salaam!!!! Let baiters say what they want to, let all those meak selectors do what they wanted to! But for people like me, it meant a lot! I aint a cricket buff, but started watching it regularly when I read about yr comeback from More-Chappelian extinction!! I personally was going thru' a very very bad patch in life but I drew strength from that comeback of yours! Honest!!And I am back in life and have been successful! If ever I fall behind, I know I will remember your comeback!! You were the true Champ! The CAPTAIN that those ex-captains never were, and possibly never can be! So dont look back! YOU ARE THE ONE that this country needed when you did it! And thats that!!!The rest can go to waste-basket. Truly Saurav! If ever you do something for this country in the future, Just write on yr blog (start one, seriously)- this Indian will help in his meagre ways! Some charity for the poor, or the marginally cast aside in this country...anything. You did make the difference in my life and Insallah, I am sure you have done it for others too. God bless and keep yr head high!! Adieu to the Best Captain India ever had in any FORMAT of the GAME!! And thats THAT!!!

Super Success is right. He talks about T20 Crikect, not Football. Ganguly should have done good for T20 also. He plays for himseld, and T20 is team game.
