The last roar of the bengal tiger!!!

Felt very sad when I heard about this news. But everything has an end in our life and so as this. unable to express but its life and we need to get used to it. The prince of kolkata will be no more on the cricketing field. His last outing will be the test series against aussies, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2008.

He has been my inspiration all the time thru his 16 years of cricketing career and will be through out my life. I learned many things from him. The way to lead a team,the leadership qualities, the meaning for the word aggression and also the incessant confidence and determination that he showed all the way till the end in his career. He was unstoppable. Hats off to Saurav Ganguly!!!

He was one of the greatest and most successful captain India had so far. Indian cricket was in a golden run under his captaincy, which reached the World Cup final in 2003. Many memorable series under his belt made him the greatest captain of India all time. The most prolific opening partnerships between Ganguly and Sachin needs a special mention. They hv been the best openers in ODI till now and no one can imagine of overtaking their opening records. They both created history in all the record tables. They have 26 hundreds and 29 fifties opening partnership and a total of 8227 runs between them. Only Hayden and Gilchrist opening pair tried to draw close but lost in the race by a long way. Ganguly is also one among sachin and jayasuriya to reach 10000 runs, 100 wickets and 100 catches in ODI in the world. He also has the most sixes by an Indian in international cricket. how can one forget his sixes ??? Simply Amazing !!!

He needs to be respected for his tremendous and marvelous contributions to the Indian Cricket. He brought in the belief to the Indian cricket after the match fixing scandals in 2000. He innovated the concept of youngsters which later has become a threat for his own place in the team. Whatever, the world is going to miss an amazing cricketer. More than a cricketer, he will be respected as a wonderful human being. All the very best for ur future dada !!!
