Yes, Sourav Ganguly should have played the Ranji Trophy match. But why is he being singled out. Many others who have been selected for the Pak tour have also decided not to play in the Ranji Trophy matches. But there is no hue & cry.
On what authority does Kiran More write to BCCI to ask for an explanation as to why Sourav is not playing. Is he not exceeding his limits. He is a selector not a monitor. And if he has written to BCCI about Sourav, he should have written about other players also who are not taking part.
It seems that his ultimate aim is only to humiliate Sourav. I fail to understand why until there is some ulterior motive. And who is besides him to assist is none other than Greg Chappel, who knew that he cannot make the Indian players slaves / puppets if Sourav is around. So by hook or crook, his one point agenda is "Remove Sourav".
Greg Chappel is none other "MOGAMBO" and Kiran More his faithful general & Sourav is "MR INDIA".
Though Kiran More may think that "Mogambo Khush hua", but like in the film Mogambo will be shown the door by MR. INDIA.
