"Saurav and Sachin"One of the most successful partners in the Indian

hi this is new blog every one see that

One of the most successful partners in the Indian ,why even in the world’s cricketing history is Saurav and Sachin. There are more than 20 one-day century partnerships to this pair’s credit. The same story continues in test cricket also. The total Indian team’s score and performance were entirely dependent on these two for a period of 8 years in late 90’s. There were too many ironical similarities these two have like Sachin made or broke most of his records with Saurav on the field or batting at the other end and vice verse. Now one star decided to get down from all forms of cricket which means double work for the Little Master.Ganguly was looking in great touch and will be as determined as ever in his final innings, which will be upon on us soon. He has looked fantastic throughout this series, and has made so many Indian supporters very proud.

Profile

Some felt he couldn’t play the bouncer, others swore that he was God on the off-side; some laughed at his lack of athleticism, others took immense pride in his ability to galvanise a side. Sourav Ganguly’s ability to polarise opinion led to one of the most fascinating dramas in Indian cricket. Yet, nobody can dispute that he was India’s most successful Test captain - forging a winning unit from a bunch of talented, but directionless, individuals - and nobody can argue about him being one of the greatest one-day batsmen of all time. Despite being a batsman who combined grace with surgical precision in his strokeplay, his career had spluttered to a standstill before being resurrected by a scintillating hundred on debut at Lord’s in 1996. Later that year, he was promoted to the top of the order in ODIs and, along with Sachin Tendulkar, formed one of the most destructive opening pairs in history.

When he took over the captaincy after the match-fixing exposes in 2000, he quickly proved to be a tough, intuitive and uncompromising leader. Under his stewardship India started winning Test matches away, and put together a splendid streak that took them all the way to the World Cup final in 2003. Later that year, in Australia, an unexpected and incandescent hundred at Brisbane set the tone for the series where India fought the world’s best team to a standstill. Victory in Pakistan turned him into a cult figure but instead of being a springboard for greater things, it was the peak of a slippery slope.

The beginning of the end came in 2004 at Nagpur - when his last-minute withdrawal played a part in Australia clinching the series - and things went pear shaped when his loss of personal form coincided with India’s insipid ODI performances. Breaking point was reached when his differences with Greg Chappell leaked into public domain and his career was in jeopardy when India began their remarkable revival under Rahul Dravid.

His gritty 30s at Karachi, when India succumbed to a humiliating defeat in early 2006, weren’t enough for him to retain his spot and some felt he would never get another chance. Others, as always, thought otherwise and they were proved right when he was included in the Test squad for the away series in South Africa in 2006-2007. He ended as the highest Indian run-scorer in that series and capped his fairytale comeback with four half-centuries on his return to ODIs. He continued his fine run in England, where he finished as the second highest scorer in Tests, and went on to slam back-to-back hundreds against Pakistan at home, the second of which was a glorious 239 in Bangalore. Ganguly was surprisingly omitted from India’s ODI squad for the CB Series in Australia and has been out of contention in the one-day squad since. After a poor Test series in Sri Lanka, there were reports of him considering retirement but he was given a lifeline in the Tests against Australia at home. Two days before the first Test, he said the series would be his last.

one time more dada

I think this would be it for him. His moment, his ultimate glory; to start off with a hundred and end in one!
Life is not always fair and no one knows that more than Ganguly himself!

India should be winning this one for Dada...one last time!

we are miss u sourav ganguly(dada).

hi this is new blog every one see that:


Is Sourav Ganguly, a significant part of Bengal’s history? Undoubtedly yes, and to my mind his retirement from sport shall create a big void.

While India’s strength is its multicultural existence, unmatched in the world, I do believe history of each and every province of India is unique in their own way. Having said that, what made India unique was – the entire country’s history is made by the respective regions contributing to make the nation. One may argue about the regional parochialism but one cannot ignore the strength of India which despite its diversity (which few understand) have always remained the way it is. It is not an easy thing for a nation that does not adhere to a single culture / custom but thus far I guess India has been very successful.

Surprisingly, the unification has been seen majorly in politics, sports and also to many criticisms in Indian films. However, post-independence, India always lacked a true leader whom people could idologise, who made the country proud, who represented India, as it should be. People’s disillusionment with politics because of corrupt politicians made cricket the unlikeliest arena where Indians started looking for heroes. Whatever may be the reason, but I cannot ignore the significance of Indian cricket plays in unifying the nation. If you call us unfortunate for that, let it be but then if a sport and its players can manage to handle the expectations of so many people and occasionally give them a reason to celebrate, I commend them. It does not matter always from where happiness comes as long as it comes, especially in a country where it is such a distant dream for many. Sourav Ganguly has long been part of this happiness providing group and a significant part to that.

People loved him and people also indulged in the fashion of hating him but whosoever says Sourav was not a courageous Indian despite his limitation, to my mind he is lying.

In Delhi, I have largely seen hatred towards Sourav and surprisingly most of those accusations were racists in terms of hatred towards him being a Bengali and I had to fight them. At times I wondered why does inept individuals make such racist comments, but then I thought a huge blackened part of Indian history is indulgence in regional racism – a fight that has been at its ugliest in recent times.

I do feel there is a reason for that too. Partly it is economic but to a large extent it is emotional. Regions in India jostle between themselves to “gift” the one hero from their region. Since, there are few at the national level anyway they even take recourse to reality television show to exhibit their regionalism. In this scarcity thus it is evident that childish arguments driven largely by envy follows.

Bengal as a state of India were not immune to that either. On one hand, Bengalis have never really coped with their status of becoming an insignificant state in economics and arts over time where their history showed their one time prominence, on the other hand falling from grace created a schizophrenic feeling among Bengalis that it is not them who created this state for themselves but this was a result of some conspiracy.
Personally, I do feel the people of Bengal are entirely responsible for the state of affairs in Bengal but in India before we attribute the entire responsibility of a problem on people, we must remember a large number of people in India have never really got the opportunity to realize their potential. Their poverty became a tool of many progressive politicians, theoretical research studies, Nobel prizes, literatures, discussions and somewhat deliberately they remained where they were for many generations. However, they were part of Bengal too – who are much more aware than people of other regions of their heritages and struggles.

This perhaps justifies Sourav’s importance in Bengal’s history where the educated urban privileged lots as well as the uneducated deprived lots were united in their knowledge of their virtually lost heritage of gifting the nation leaders. Sourav became a cause, a hope and a true leader.

Without taking away credit from Sourav’s successes, it is actually sad whenever I put myself on the shoes of Bengal. Bengal is like a mother who has seen so many of her son to succeed in every sphere and suddenly there is none. The impoverished nature, huge brain drain because of lack of opportunities did not help either. Thankfully, there was Sourav who captured her imagination, representing the state and the nation admirably.

Bengal’s fall from grace is a story in itself and whenever I see people inside India ridiculing us, I feel pained. I feel inside like the old Bengali proverb, which says, when an elephant is caught in a mud-pit when frogs dare to kick it.

Thankfully, Sourav gave reasons to rejoice and that is why Bengalis became so possessive about him. He was courageous because he accomplished being a leader when other great colleague of his refused to do so time and again, he succeeded despite his limitations and more importantly he fought back always.

Sourav’s toughness to fight back against adversities if translated into every youth of Bengal, I somehow feel the state shall have immense hope for the future. I know many people shall give his being a rich man’s son but then the humiliation he must faced in the periods between 1991-1996 and later during 2005-2007 cannot be replenished by monetary comfort alone.

Beyond just a cricketer, Sourav to me represented a Bengali whom I admired. He had his held high, he had aura and he excelled in leadership. Of course, he had his inherited limitations but even with them he excelled and that is why he is so special. Cricket became a tool for his success but it is his attitude that after a long time exemplified being a Bengali.

Most Bengali’s within their hearts want to see more of Sourav from among them in every sphere of lives, not just cricket. It is just that, many of them hardly accept the fact. There general fascination with a variety subjects and the ghost of history at times acts as cobwebs on their wishes, but I do wish Sourav’s legacy gets reflected into to-day’s youth. Our generation of Bengali Indians has not seen many whom we can admire, we are lucky to see one at least.

Let’s have our chin up and don’t make him just another chapter in sports.

Sourav Ganguly would be part of Indian cricket history but for Bengal he is part of its social history.

He, through his career (quite unintentionally) has reminded the state how it can still excel in any fields if it regains its confidence. He displayed immense leadership skills in a country which has such a scarcity of leaders who can capture people’s imagination thorough their act. I do think it is a significant contribution on his part.

I wish the youth understands the deeper meaning of the Sourav psyche that lies dormant in all of its people. If we don’t then we need to wait perhaps much longer to have another hero whom we shower our love.

India is the future No1 team in cricket : Hadlee

India is the future No1 team in cricket: Hadlee

All-time great all-rounder Richard Hadlee feels India has the potential to be the top team in all forms of world cricket and it is just a matter of a couple of years before they wear the crown of world champions.”India has the potential to be the No 1 team in all forms of the game. What we are seeing in India’s performance, it’s a reflection of Indian Premier League (IPL). India is a real force in world cricket,” said Hadlee.

“If India wins this series against Australia, it will give hope to New Zealand who will tour Australia in the future. They will have the confidence that if India can beat Australia, so can we,” said the Kiwi, who is the brand ambassador of the Delhi Half Marathon here.

Hadlee, who is taking a break from cricket after his term as the New Zealand selector came to an end, said Sachin Tendulkar is the best cricketer among his generation.

“Don Bradman was definitely all-time great. The greatness of a player depends on how quickly he adapts to situation in different conditions. For Sachin, statistics speak volumes. Technically, he is better than any one. He is a magnificent player and has served not only India but world cricket.”

Hadlee, who once held a word record of 431 wickets, said it is the spinners who now rule the roost.

“Earlier pacers used to be the highest wicket takers, now it’s the spinners like Shane Warne, Muttiah Murlitharan and Anil Kumble. Fast bowlers put the pressure while spinners take the wickets. So it is the balancing act in cricket, ” Hadlee said.

Yousuf blames captain, PCB for defection to ICL

hi this is new blog every one see that:

KARACHI, Nov 7 (Reuters) - The attitude of Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik and the country's board were behind Mohammad Yousuf's decision to join the unofficial Indian Cricket League (ICL), the senior batsman said.

The 34-year-old, who joined the ICL on Wednesday, told the Geo News channel he had been under mental strain since the World Cup in 2007.

"I was not given the respect a senior player deserves in the team. I was fed up with the attitude of captain Shoaib Malik and the cricket board," Yousuf said.

Malik, however, told reporters in Karachi he was surprised by Yousuf's allegations.

"He never came to me and talked about any issue. I had a perfectly normal relationship with him and we practised together regularly," Malik said.

The Pakistan skipper said he gave respect to all the players in the national team.

"I am disappointed at his decision to join the ICL but more disappointed he has said such things," he added.

Yousuf, who has been banned from playing for Pakistan, denied money was the motivation for defecting to the rebel league:cricketmore

HERO CUP FINAL

CALCUTTA
Anil Kumble is without doubt India's greatest spinner of all time - not only in terms of wickets but also by being a member of the winning team on more occasions than any other bowler in the history of Indian cricket. Be it Test matches or ODIs, Anil has always been a match-winner. If in Test matches he is a no-nonsense wicket-taking bowler, in ODIs, he can attack and contain at will. Quiet, precise, ruthless - Anil goes about his business of demolishing the opposition with clinical efficiency, based on the simple principles of line and length, and the desire to make the batsman play every ball.

Trained as a mechanical engineer, Anil discovered early the virtues of precision and accuracy, which he has put to telling effect on the field.

Luckily for India, he opted to pursue a career in cricket with equal zest. A strong will and strong Ranji Trophy performances for Karnataka made him force his way into the Indian team. When he was 19, Anil made his debut on 9th August, 1990 against England. Two years later he took his first five-wicket haul (6-53) against South Africa at Johannesburg, to announce his arrival on the world stage. In 1993-94, he bowled a magical ODI spell (6-12) to crush the West Indies in the final of the Hero Cup in Calcutta.

Never termed a classical leg-spinner (primarily because he is not a huge turner of the ball) in the real sense of the word, Anil has proved in his 15 long years in international cricket, that his style was equally effective. With a clever mix of top-spinners, googlies, leg-breaks, flight and a variation of pace, he has outwitted many a batsman. Facing a vary tall spinner, hurling deliveries at short of medium-pace, with every ball on target, can be a very daunting task. As his record suggests, he has won many leg-before-wickets by fooling many batsmen into playing across the line.

The mid-nineties saw the emergence of Anil Kumble as a mature strike bowler. With state team-mates Javagal Srinath and Venkatesh Prasad sharing the country's new ball, India finally had variation in its bowling department - pace, swing and spin, and much-needed support for him in the absence of Kapil Dev. But even though he was a proven match-winner, he needed that one performance which would take him to cricketing immortality. It didn't take him long as on an eventful afternoon at the Ferozshah Kotla, in early February of 1999, he single-handedly spun out the entire Pakistan team in the second innings to become only the second bowler in Test match history to capture all 10 wickets in an innings.

Around this period, another prodigious spin-bowling talent emerged in the form of Harbhajan Singh. Funnily, it was Anil who spotted him. Today, they form the most lethal spin combination in the world; and the mighty Australians can vouch for that. Since 2000-01, they have toyed, teased and tormented the Aussies with fantastic results. To do so with such remarkable consistency against the best team in the world speaks volumes.

there is a cricketmore that is our jumbo "amil kumble"

A day after his retirement from the game, former Indian cricket captain Anil Kumble said the plan to start his own cricket academy was very much on his mind and he would start focussing on it.

On his immediate plans, he said "I will take it easy for a couple of days and then go to Nagpur (to watch the fourth test match)". The issue of starting his own cricket academy was on his mind and he would begin focussing on it, he said.

Defending his to call it quits, Kumble said "it is the right time to leave".

Kumble, who returned home after a career spanning 18 years, told reporters here that "I have taken the decision rightly to handover the role to Dhoni".

"I have had a fantastic career and it was the right time to leave. It has not been easy when you play for 18 years. But the time had come to move on", Kumble said.

He said he felt he would not be able to give 100 per cent to the team and hence decided to retire.

Commenting on his cricketing career and his contribution to the game, he said "it has been a great journey" for him all these years. "I have done everything I could possibly have done".

Asked whether members of the Indian cricket team have come under pressure following the retirement of two senior players including Saurav Ganguly, he said the team has some good players."The Indian cricket team is in good hands. The team is all set to be number one in all aspects of the game".

Kumble said his successor Dhoni was doing well and described him as an "able leader" under whom the team could hope to secure victories.

"Players are always under pressure to perform. Each player is picked to perform. It is a team game... Each man has a different role to play and you can't play the same role at all times. People get confused and expect the same thing from the same person all the time", Kumble said.

rawing a parallel between Bollywood and cricket, he said "in Bollywood also, this is the trend. When Amitabh Bachchan started his career, he played a different role and now he plays a different role. But he is still a fantastic performer" Kumble said he had enjoyed all these 18 years playing cricket and thanked the people and the media for the support.

"The captaincy was not in my control... It came at the right time. I can now say I have done everything in cricket.. I gave 100 per cent to the role of a captain ", Kumble said in reply to a question whether captaincy came late.

An emotional Kumble paid his obesiance to his father, who died this day five years ago. Recalling, he said "today is is a very tough day for me because five years ago my father passed away this day. I know he is blessing me from up there and I miss him".

Commending Dhoni, Kumble said "we are going to see many more victories under him. Time looks nice for India to move forward", he said."Kumble to start his own cricket academy" more read
