The Prince of Kolkata, after a long speculation has been selected for the first two tests of the Border-Gavasakar trophy commencing on Oct 8. After having being left out for Irani cup tie, the chances of Ganguly getting back into seemed faint. Thanks to the new selection committee headed by Krish Srikkanth, Ganguly has now been brought back into the side. Though there is a lot of media speculation about the Voluntary retirement scheme for the senior players, the news that Ganguly is back means a lot to his fans. There have been mixed reactions to such talks throughout the nation, but Captain Anil Kumble s denial of such a scheme has ended all those speculations. Hope this is not the end of road for the 'FAB 5'of Indian Cricket.
To get valuable match practise ahead of the series, Sourav is now in Chennai with the India A side to play against the New Zealand A side. 'When the going gets tough, the tough ones get goin' as they say, nothing least could be expected from this man who has already proved his credentials by making a strong comeback in 2006 in South Africa after being forced out of the side by Greg Chappel in 2005. This could well be a second comeback for Sourav to make it a point to the world that Its too early to write him off. Badly expecting him alongside the Fab 5 of the Indian cricket to go out there and crush the Australians... All de best DADA....
