  1. I think they are just recalling him as they have realised they have no choice. Dhoni, for all his talk, could not deliver. To top it the "young man" is complaining of fatigue. I did not know a Captain/ leader could just opt out and leave his team to rest.

    Wonder what people would say if it was Ganguly asking for rest. That he is 36 and should be "rested" for good! l0l. Life!!!

    Happy Birthday Sourav.


  2. Youngstars are performing well!!This is the story of Indian cricket team!!

  3. yeah..he is a superb fighter and he will be there till he wants!!

  4. he is a gd player and he have still that killing instinct and energy which can let him play in one days.

    but now is dhoni's politics so this is very hard to make come back in one day team. but he is a great player without any doubt.

    happy birthday ganguly ( dada of indian cricket ) who teach how to fight back in the game and who teach the aggression.

  5. yes

    he still has lot to play for his country!

    He is there in the test squad but I hope he will be in ODIs as well.

    My wishes to him will be alwz there

    go Dada!

  6. IN ODI NO

    IN TEST YES

  7. no...there are lot of youngsters deserving chance and Sourav should give way for the emerging talents....

  8. Happy Birthday!

    Will be good to see him play. The men in charge as you say sit on a see saw. They do not favor him but keep changing decisions.

  9. Saurav is like my big bro so first of all happy birth day dada. And about reply he can't stop and nobody can stop to play cricket for india as a great player.

  10. no

  11. might 4 test crick.

  12. yes,I think ,Ganguly should be there

  13. Hey the good news for us Sourav dada fans is that Ganguly has already been chosen in the 16 member squad of India for the forthcoming test series against Sri Lanka. Rahul Dravid has also been picked, while MS Dhoni himself opted out of the 3 test series, because he felt that he needed a break from continuous cricket. Anyway, I am glad that  the "men in charge" decided to rely on experience over youth atleast for tests. But I have a serious doubt as to whether Ganguly will ever be able to return back to the ODI team or not. Still, I believe that India  needs the experience of dada as well as Dravid. We all did see how India went down in the Asia Cup final. The youngsters couldn't handle the pressure, and collapsed when it mattered the most. Besides, all the youngsters except Raina such as Yousuf Pathan, Rohit Sharma, Uthappa didn't live upto the expectations. So, I don't really see why Sourav inspite of performing better than most of them throughout 2007, and proving himself in the IPL isn't considered worthy of being in the ODI team. The selection process is really irrational! Infact, it's almost hilarious when it's said that "selection is made on the basis of performance", and in practice, the underachievers are chosen instead of the true performers.

    Anyway, A Very Happy Birthday to my inspiration-Sourav Dada. Many happy returns of the day, and I wish him success in the coming year, beginning with the test series at Sri Lanka. Of course, I've already wished him today, as a fan:

    But I dare not hope anything more for him in the future, because Indian cricket is run by "a bunch of jokers" on whom I've no faith. My best wishes are with him on his 36th birthday.

  14. presently india has large number of talented players, so i don't think that ganguly has the chances.

  15. I have to say that the door for ODIs have been shut before Ganguly.

    Dravid & Ganguly has not been included even in the 30 probables for Champions Trophy, selected today.

  16. dada had made the strongest comeback in the squad in natwest series of 2006,& i hope he'll do it 1ce again......

    well,happy b'day saurav!

  17. Happy Birthday to my DADA.......

    Yes he will surely come back to our squad...... Because of lossing in finals our team should need a good leader..... So he will be

  18. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DADA - THE BENGAL TIGER! May u achieve all the things u want in life! And please Dada, play well in the up-coming test series....We want a win! We want to see the bengal Tiger roar on the Lankan ground!

    In tests, he is certainly one of the player we are looking forward to but can't say the same about ODI's!

  19. I am confident he is still capable to be in the squad and he will surely come with flying colours as usual.  You can't imagine his mental toughness.  Sanat is 39 and still he is just gallopping bowlers of half his age.  So man, Dada is just 36 and why losing heart ?  Just wait and watch a remarkably wonderful cricketer and its a pleasure watching him playing.  Isn't it ?

  20. yh defo chanderpual olish he keep the west indies team in good shape and he best form of his life
