am not a fan of ganguly. But I think among all indian captains he is the best as captain and as performer also. He got 2 MOM awards no other captain has got that (may be shewag). ven Sachin, Dravid, Yuvraj all are flop till now.The thing KKR lacked is quality players. No captain can win a match with the current KKR team. They have no gayle no mccullam half shoiab and alone david hussey. I feel on local players saha, shukla and dinda done good job.. but now a days pakistani batsmen are useless. I hv my respect for dhoni too .. he is also in trouble after loosing quality players. Except Dhoni and ganguly no indian captains are good. They are winning because of a strong team. and Warne has his full team almost to choose from.

it was only the individual brilliance of shewag, dravid, yuvraj and sachin that won matches for india under ganguly's captaincy and cant remember any match won by india by his sheer captaincy interms of field placements or bowling changes... a captain is as good as his team....no special praise reqd for ganguly...

well said om prakash...with mediocre players in the team, ganguly has done wonders. Congrats Shahruk for 500% RoI.

sorry, ganguly was out of his wits as far as this tourney goes. yuvraj, warne, dhoni, tendulkar, sehwag take the cake. the rest have have limited success

sachin has played only 4 games till now pal... remeber that... and he has been contributing from outside the boundary.. you Sachin bashers will never understand his greatness.. all you know is to blame him for everything..
