The English and the Aussies are in the habit of firing queer remarks about Indian players. In my opinion, Ganuly has never shown any sort of laziness or negative attitude. It is Ganguly who has developed interest in the Indian team, which is considered a force to reckon with. Besides, Greg has been too impersonal and has a tendency to master the minds and individuals. On the contrary, he should understand the psychology of the Indian team and Indians as such and tackle them accordingly. Afterall, all wish to promote the Indian cricket cause (I hope Greg too)
freddie is boosting to much about his ashes series and i think it got to his head just let him go to australia then he'll write another book saying oh the pitch was was not the same like in england and they had there home advantage and i was not 100% fit due to cilmate changes and lack off pracitce

hello sir,
i think he is the only captain who took the team for worldcup final after 20 years(1983)... he is the only captain who sustained for long run... he was the role model for young stars like yuvaraj when he entred to the matches... ganguly is the good batsman who scored runs of 10000 and above ... sachin just reached 14000 runs in 2006... he is great bats man.. who was in our team for 18 dec 1989. but ganguly got late entry compared to great sachin... where no other bats man in the world has achieved ... plz friends dont forget the past records...
I think the reporter is missing context here. The time Flintoff wrote about was 2000-2001 when the so called Maharaja had every thing going for him, he was in his prime and that's when you expect him throwing his tantrums. Cut to 2005 when he is out of shape and out of form, I don't think its surprising that he was working to get back in shape and form with Glamorgan.
