The Comeback Dada

Sourav Ganguly, the Prince of Kolkata and Indian Cricket also belovedly known by Dada to everyone  is one player whom you cannot write-off completely. He still has something and can easily copyright the term, Comeback Player.

The more you write him off, the more he will try to show his worth and that too successfully. Remeber his ignonimous spat with Greg chappel a few years back which ulitmately led his ouster from the team.

And when everyone almost forgot him, remember that Pepsi Ad and immediately. And luck was such after that Greg Chappel has to chew his pride when he made a dream comeback with him being the most consistent player in the Indo-Pak Test series and scoring his maiden test double hundred.



Sourav is about the man of a Never Say Die attitude, it's about the man who never quits no matter how odd the circumstances are, it's about the man who made the best ever comeback in the history of World Cricket. And that is the spirit which have made him the most loved player in Indian cricket perhaps only after Sachin Tendulkar. His fan following even in the worst days has been tremendous and each city of India has showered their love towards him with his home city Kolkata always staying solidly behind him.

Sourav Ganguly has become a mile stone of Indian Cricket team. He became the center of talks in cricketing world from the day he started his carrier against England and why not his start was special once he hit two back to back tons against a highly competitive team like England. Since than he lead India to some unimaginable glories more importantly he led the team after the betting crisis that rocked the Indian cricket team.

He had his ups and down and even in the shorter format of the game in slam bang 20-20 IPL championship, he has tried to make a mark even in the winter of his career. And now after being ignored in the 4th edition of the IPL auctions, he has once again comeback mid-way to join the Pune Warriors to prove his point after declining lucrative mentoring offers from his home state side Kolkata Knight Riders.
