Horrible Ganguly
by Ricky Ponting on Nov 05, 2007 11:29 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It's very shame to have a person like Ganguly in the team. The way he fields, I agree Pathan too had some today but Ganguly's fielding was not even up to the first standard kid. I think it's time to go for Ganguly. It's better for him to announce the retirement from cricket or he will be thrown away by Vengsarkar sooner or later. I personally feel he's embarrasment for Indian Cricket, of course now-a-days.

Yeah. Pathan goofed up couple times, but he usually a good fielder. Ganguly is simply consistent in goofying up. His running BTW is comparable to Inzi..

cheers dada. His fitness levels are not great. Dada must be aware of it and he will be an important member down under. He should improve his fitness levels and be on the rampage down under.

Dada, please dont let us down.

Boss please don't say so...if Ganguly Gone ...India will have mid term of election....it will be a big burden of 1200 cr on govt of india....its more imp to have him in the team than signing nuclear deal with US. Don't worry vengsarkar wont dare to touch him otherwise he will loose his job like greg chappel...ganguly is not alone like dravid...total Lal Saalam is behind him...so pls bear with him pathetic condition...n save us from having mid term election...hope u understand

I seriously doubt whether this time around Ganguly could produce the same amount of intesity he did produce against australia in 2003.

There are few resaons to cite the above,1. He was then captain, where he led by example.
2.He couldnt run between wickets as he used to be. He's clearly aged to maintain fitness.

I think by playing like this he's spoiling his reputation by himself. For Ganguly, this is the best time to retire from cricket in all forms.

If he continues to play cricket like this, soon he will be forgot for all his good work. I strongly believe this is what going to happen.
