Salute the Dada of Indian Cricket


Sourav Ganguly, India’s most successful test captain has retired from international cricket. This is the time for us to celebrate the cricketing career of this legendary cricketer, whose legacy extends far beyond the runs that he had accumulated in international cricket. The number of brave hearted young cricketers that he offered to Indian cricket, the sense of competitive spirit that he presented and the degree of mettle and self confidence that he imparted to the team are the real contributions made by the Bengal Tiger to Indian cricket. The southpaw, called the “Lord of the Off Side”, for his flamboyant stroke play through the off side had been a terror in the minds of bowlers all over the world. As he retires from international cricket, we can rejoice on his astounding career, as a batsman as well as captain, and wish him all the best for all his future endeavours. But we will surely miss the Dada.
