Saurav is the best batsman India even produced. Even Dhoni said "Dada is a legend". Yuvraj said "Whatever I am I am just because of Ganguly. Who will forget Ganguly's 43 match winning innings that he won for India single handedly. Ponting once said "I want to be like Ganguly". Lara said I want to learn captaincy from Ganguly. Ishant Sharma and Praveen Kumar r big fans of Ganguly. Ganguly will bounce back and he will become the captain for one day and test matches. Dhoni very badly missed Ganguly in matches which were lost by India in Australia. In Ganguly's absence India narrowly missed no. 1 ranking in ICC ranking. Dravid once said "I was in one day team because of Ganguly".
I agree, also, an impotent info on tenDULLkar as he plans to devise a special stool of about 1.5 foot tall and stand on the above. This is to adjust himself well on the bounce compensating his height factor.

As Enddu grow older....his body will shrink...so he need to increase height of his stool every year......lol
maaza will come mamu when compitition comes between jacq v sachin , smith v Dada , Dravid v Hashim Amla , waseem jaffer v AB de Villiers , Mark Boucher v Dhoni , Makhaya Ntini v Sreeshant , Dale Steyn v Ishant sharma , Paul Harris v Bhaji , Morne Morkel (allrounder) v Irfan Pathan (alrounder) Neil McKenzie v Laxman (Hyderabadi) and Fighter Anil indian captain v all south africa players.
I feel for the players when they play well on foreign conditions and come to the most dead pitches in INDIA. I just hope BCCI will not sit on its A##E and do somethign about making sure he Pitches are well prepared, Green and moist underneath and first two days give osmething to the bowlers and the nex t3 days play well for spinners. Then the Test series will be real fun! And i think India will match the Proteas well in skill and strength, rather might just better them since being on a high in batting departments after beating Aussies not ot mention good bowling performances from all bowlers too. India better be prepared for a run rout or slow dead crappy p[itches otherwise as they may find it hard to negotiate good pace at variable bounce or no bunce at all.

Martin Crowe once said. Sachin has invented some new shots. For example, the straight batted paddle, which goes behind the keeper. He is a very quick learner and adapts his game to the situation. His killer instincts and attitude of taking revenge with particular bowlers adds spice to his batting. A very committed fielder who gives his best while fielding even after a long innings while batting. Sachin is simply the greatest cricketer on earth. The consistency at which he plays, his simplicity proves that he is one of the best.Sachin is honest, committed, sincere and a thorough gentleman.Sachin Tendulkar being a busy batsman in the world has bought about a new dimension to Indian cricket.One has to agree to the fact that he is the best Indian living irrespective of the wealth and fame he possesses. When we talk of Sachin we are talking about the greatest son of mother India.Sachin as a person appears to be cool, calm and always smiling cheerfully.Extraordinary cricketer. Great brain as a cricket player. Tackles the situation very smartly. Great man to have in the team particularly when it comes to the crunch situation.
