Ganguly would have been in next two matches and austrlia series any way. He has always built up crucial partnerships. His main shortcoming - apart from not scoring 100 - is he is Bengali. So much of hate rest of india has on Bengalis (for some unknown reason) that Ganguly is jeered on the day he fails, as well as the day when he succeeds. Horrible people are Indians. You are missing that people like you were successful to kick him out. BUT WERE FORCED TO BRING HIM IN TEAM WHEN YOUR TAILS WERE BETWEEN YOUR LEGS. Just that.
