At IPL 4 auctions all respective franchisee owners are sitting.
As the auction proceeds its comes to Sourav's auction, no other franchisee shows interest in buying him, SRK is quite as he knows the amount quoted is too high. Suddenly M Ambani gets up goes to L Modi and has a quite gentle talk, what everyone see's is Modi is agreeing to something, after which Ambani gets to his seat and raises his hands up and says 15 million for Sourav, Ajit Agarkar and Ishant.
Hearing this SRK faints.....
People get near him and sprinkle water and he gets to his senses and looking at Ambani says "Are u sure, u buying all three of them at this rate".
Ambani replies, Yes I have already bought them and am Gifting all three to you !!!!...

MOdi wont be there for ipl4! With no icon status the big names wont get the same deal. Imagine Laxman, ganguly, dravid getting more than $1 million... not possible.

Ganguly will represent with SRK for KKR in IPL4 auction, So his name will not come at the time of auctions.
Tendlya master should play ipl..even if dont play one dayers for next two seris it will not bother..becoz if we win any one day seris against any team..all cricket lovers would keep this seris win only for a matter a week but if we win 2010 world cup..m really sure that we would keep that in mind atleast for ten years..ha ha DONT YOU GUYS THINK SO
if u want to give youngster a chance why not give some chance in one dayer instead of so much valued 20 20 world cup

When he plays, people call him selfish - playing for records, blocking youngsters etc etc. Now, even if he does not play, people call him selfish. Sachin is in a no-win situation.

Ohh...Is it..?..When India won the first T20 world cup, everybody told we dont need Sachin...Everybody termed him selfish for not retiring to give chance to youngsters...Suddenly he has become selfish for not playing...Where all the youngsters have gone...:)

Dont forget that many indian players got the platform to show their talent play with big guns of india.....sachin is playing ipl to be with domestic talent and show them the tight way...you can see that youngsters belive he is god..and they really enjoy playing with their god..and why not...sachin had to play ipl for the sake of young talent....i still rememebr when young R satheesh has descreibed him as god..we could see the happiness in the youngsters eyes when they play with sachin... and as far as indian team is concern he wanted youngsters to do well

whatever it is, the guy should be credited for instilling confidence and attitude in the Indian team. earlier Indian team was always looked as a bunch of demure, soft and intimidated guys who mre often lost the match even before the match started. Sourav changed all that. And that is huge. that should be respected.

I Think you are a fan of Rahul Dravid, Who has not yet made 200 runs in this IPL3
Re: Re: Re: Bring Sourav Ganguly back into India team
by kiran kumar on Apr 20, 2010 01:56 PM
What Dravid and his performance has to do with this discussion. This very attitude of bongs degrade their arguement capabilities. If the discussion is about Sourav, keep it to Sourav. If you want to talk Dravid, start a separate discussion.

you seem to be a very knowledgeable man !!! Commenting on Sourav

I dont think there is a criteria for someone to make a comment on Ganguly on this board.

If Sourav chucked out from team, who took his place in the team?? Is it you!!!!?? Think before making such silly comments. He is still fit and well enough to ply international level.
Re: Re: Re: Bring Sourav Ganguly back into India team

Sourav was indeed chucked out of the team. Did he deserve to be chucked out is a different matter. Yes, I agree he looks very promising in IPL, but it is very difficult for selectors to bring him back, considering the current young batting talent with the likes Raina, Robin, Rohit, Yuvi, Yousuf etc. With his current form and fielding abilities, if Sourav was incumbent, he would have retained his spot without any problem

Forgot to mention Sehwag and Gautam in the batters list

Wrong. He was good enough to be in the Indian team right from 1996 till at least 2002. I'll however agree that his form waned disastrously since the start of 2003, and he played from 2003 till mid 2005 simply because he was the captain and maybe he had political pull. Then after he made his comeback in late 2006, once again he proved his merit and played till his retirement solely on his merit, without any political influence.

Sourav changed all that. And that is huge. that should be respected. he also vacated the openers slot to viru even though he played his best cricket as an opener. it was very gallant of him. This IPL proves that he would have been much more successful as a batsman had he continued as an opener.

It all started with Kapil Dev. Captains who fall in this category are Kapil, Azher, Sourav and now Dhoni. Among the rest there were some good players and some great players, but either lacked vision or ability to execute the plans. The results of these captains say a lot.
shrad pawar the biggest crook is the head of the biggest sports mafia BCCI in the world....i mean how come actors who earn 2crore per film and dance on people's weddings for money become owners of a multi million doller IPL team overnight...it happens only in mera bharat mahaan....dhanda hai par manda hai yeh
modi shouldnt be fired. he needs to be interrogated. how did he earn 1000 crores in a couple of years?? how much of that money is channneled to underworld and terrorists? his contacts with the terrorists??
modi is sponsoring terrorirsts against the country... and giving death threats..
