RE:ganguly betrayed the team and dravid
by Soman Bhat on Mar 28, 2007 08:38 PM

One batsman cannot be successful in all the games.
Ganguly's records in this WC 66-89-7=161
Dravid's records in this WC 14-7-60=81
Ganguly departed early but who prevented other players to score briskly and win the game against Sri Lanka.
In Bangla game also none of the players did even stand up right for full quota of 50 overs.
Who told Dravid to get out early on 14 against the minnows and there by forcing unnecessary pressure on Ganguly to play cautiously and slowly.
On the one hand you say Ganguly has no calibre and he sneks in to the team by the grace of politicians,
on the other hand you depend wholly on him to win the game,
this is sheer double standard and regionalism.
How can the captain score only 7 against Bermuda,
and how can this person support such an useless person as a captain.
You would hardly find any Ganguly betraying the team or team mates, say whatever you like but dont give this blame to Ganguly, he has every affection to all the players.
You crticise his slow game which was natural in the circumstances but Ganguly betraying the team is not acceptable.
He was the only consistent and serious player and more so after the come back.
While all other players were playing casually with no motivation to win and captain showing no enthusiasm but doing his job mechanically, Ganguly was thinking about his game and taking the game seriously.
Once in the SL game he also came to rahul to advise something and rahul simple returned him to show the place where he should field.
This is simply not done.
This is simple showing of unnecessary grudge to a person who stood for Rahul in his bad days.
This is sheer jealousy and immaturity.
