Loathe him or dislike him, Ganguly was the man who resurrected Indian cricket from the gloomy days when it was heading towards the inevitable doom. Indian cricket is sliding back to the mid-90's phenomenah of meek surrender to the opponents. We were never a great side under him but we were always competetive. We were not the numbero uno but we were second only to the mighty Aussies and were always capable of defeating them on any given day. Now it looks impossible to beat even WI. The team then had a killer instinct about it. It was joyful to watch the young guns battling for glory and much of the credit should go to Ganguly. The present team looks like going through the motion on the field. We lost matches under Ganguly but never lost the spirit. Ganguly should be brought back, atleast as a batsman. He is better than the likes of Kaif, Raina and Mongia on any given day. His experience can help him in playing in the middle order also. That will also remind Sehwag of the impending exclusion on non-performance. Probably, Pathan and Raina would have been different players had Ganguly been around. Don't you think so?
