Indians solo fighters for team scoring tons while loosing in Test cricket
India lost 78 tests since 1996 Sachin 9 tons solo fights for team Aus 4 SA 2 Eng Pak NZ one each Dravid 1 tons solo fights against Zim one Laxman 2 tons solo fights against Aus two Sehwag 3 tons solo fights against Aus Pak SA one each and the last Saurav Big Zero tons contributed no solo fight.
These are either solo or sizable resistances while loosing others have not contrubeted enough so we lost. He scores when others soften balling by their pounding. Then the vulture comes to grab the kill

Wualitative wanna see?
Dada facing pacers. Lol…
Pak test scene...
42.3 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, no run, moves outside leg stump, Shoaib sends a slower one on the stumps, tapped to backward point
42.4 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, 1 no ball, Ah! Drama. Ganguly moved outside leg stump and Shoaib followed him with a bouncer and Ganguly ducked and fell over on his backside DADA COUNTING STARS IN BROAD DAY LIGHT.. FIGHTING ON EQUAL TERMS.
42.4 Shoaib Akhtar to Ganguly, OUT, Again he backs away, Shoaib fires in a full pitched delivery on the leg stump, Ganguly misses to connect with his heave and the leg stump is pegged back. Kumble has declared. SC Ganguly b Shoaib Akhtar 46 (58b 4x4 0x6) SR: 79.31
Now Australia on flat pitch and old ball …
61.5 Lee to Ganguly, no run, good bouncer, quick and angling towards the batsman, had Ganguly at sea there as he took his eyes off the ball
61.6 Lee to Ganguly, OUT, Ganguly attempts a big hit but mistimes it, Lee delivers from round the wicket and lands it on a full length, Ganguly makes room for the loft but miscues it to Clarke at cover, it was in the air for a while SC Ganguly c Clarke b Lee 27 (37b 2x4 0x6) SR: 72.97
1. SRK owns the team 2. Ganguly is a retired cricketer who cant run to save his life 3. It makes sense to appoint as captain a current international cricketer who fits the bill in T20's.
My suggestion to all SRK haters and Dada lovers......collect some funds buy a franchise and make Dada its captain for the next 25 years by the time he comes a real DADA ( Grandfather)

looks like 'anaida-tera baap' gay association or a kat1oo association...
Did Ganguly took us to world cup finals? 2003 World Cup
Against major oppositions where opening partnership was spoiled by Ganguly
8 v New Zealand at Paarl 9 v Aus at Centurion 19 v Eng at Durban 0 v Pak at 48 v Srilanka at Johannesburg 3 v NZ at Centurion 24 v Aus at Johannesburg
And now look Tiger against minnows
112 not out v Nam at Pietermaritzburg 107 not out v Ken at Cape Town 111 not out v Ken at Durban 24 v Zim at Harare
Not out against minnows to swell averages but mediocre batting performance. Now go and find out why we went to Finals who scored there? Keniya went to semis as England and New Zealand surrendered matches and points as protest against Zimbabwe regime for their safety. And those were supposed to be played there in Zimbabwe.
and as England and New Zealand surrendered their matches in protest against Zim regime Kenya came to semis. Ganguly is worser than rookies of 20-20 like Sharma Yusuf Uthappa and Gambhir all capable of replacing him in ODI
Ganguly in ODI win Now let us see the effort and against which side
124 v Pakistan Dhaka 1998 …..Tendulkar 41 in 26 balls RR singh 83 runs 105 v New Zealand Sharjah 1998 …..sachin 40 Azar 32 , Agarkar 35/4 109 v Sri Lanka Colombo (RPS) 1998 …..Tendulkar 128 , Agarkar 53/4 130*v Sri Lanka Nagpur 1999……. Agarkar 14/3 Ganguly 4/4 seems real single handed sort. 183 v Sri Lanka Taunton 1999….. Dravid 145 RR Singh 31/5 153*v New Zealand Gwalior 1999 …..seems real single handed sort 141 v Pakistan Adelaide 2000 Sachin 41 in 46 balls Dravid 32 Kumble 40/4 105*v South Africa Jamshedpur 2000……Match Fixing period no comments 141*v South Africa Nairobi 2000……Match Fixing period no comments 117*v England Colombo 2002 …….Sehwag 126
112*v Namibia Pietermaritzburg 2003 ….Namibia King 107*v Kenya Cape Town 2003 ……prince against Kenya 111*v Kenya Durban 2003……Tiger roaring against Kenya 111 v Kenya Paarl 2001……Prince of Kenya against Kenya 107*v Zimbabwe Bulawayo 1998 Azar 72 …..

Bengali's bow or do whatever ... Dada rocked in Bengal ...everywhere else huh...
131 Drawn v Eng 1996 at Lord's balls played 301 strike rate 136 Drawn v Eng 1996 at Nottingham balls played 361 strike rate 147 Drawn v Sri Lanka 1997 at Colombo balls played 427 strike rate 109 Drawn v Sri Lanka 1997/98 at Mohali balls played strike rate 173 Drawn v Sri Lanka 1997/98 at Mumbai balls played strike rate 101* Drawn v NZ 1998/99 at Hamilton balls played strike rate 125 Drawn v NZ 1999/00 at Ahmedabad balls played strike rate 100* Drawn v NZ 2003/04 at Ahmedabad balls played strike rate 144 Drawn v Aus at Brisbane balls played strike rate 100 Drawn v BD 2007 at Chittagong balls played strike rate 102 Drawn v Pak 2007/08 at Kolkata balls played strike rate 238 Drawn v Pak 2007/08 at Benglore balls played strike rate
India won 38 tests since 1996 and see his contribution to wins.The only three innings innings caused India win see the quality.
136 Win v Zim 2001/02 at Delhi balls played strike rate No comments other than as always great innings against minnows.
101 Win v Zim 2005/06 at Bulawayo balls played strike rate Laxman made 140 ran out in mixup with Saurav Ganguly
128 Win v Eng 2002 at Leeds balls played strike rate Only century caused against quality opposition.Here Dravid scored 148 Sachin scored 193 in the match Dada also made hay while sun shines.
Captaincy series wins abroad against quality opposition Pataudi one series win Bedi and Wadekar 2 Series wins each against mighty of their times. Azar Ganguly one each against quality oppositiom
but Ganguly Captaincy only series win gainst PAK abroad was shared so credit is devided between Dravid and Ganguly. Dhoni and Gavaskar one each against mighty side of their times Australia. Verdict- Ganguly was not most successful captain as projected by eastern journo and fans. As he captained for much lomger time with support of then Dalmiya. But he could not achieve what Bedi, Wadekar, Dhoni, Gavaskar achieved in shorter duration as captain.
i think this time there is a tough comipition between royal challengers and KKR about the last team of IPL2. it is not because of cricket but both the teams are morally down because of their owners.
