DADA-Giri is bak!!!

Many would have been expecting the return of DADA aka Sourav Ganguly into the Indian cricket team after their dismal performance in the one-dayers at South Africa!!! A 3-0 battering is not something to b proud of!!!!

The whole plan of grooming the youngsters before the World Cup has gone for a toss, and I guess the selecters are relying on the experience of Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman now. But the question here is whether Ganguly can live up to the faith that the selectors have invested in him! I guess after the 3-0 beating the selectors dont have a choice. also Ganguly has not got enough runs under his belt in the domestic circuit.
Ganguly's 144 at Brisbane in Australia is one of the best innings he's ever played, and no one doubts his potential as a batsman. But does he have the mental toughness to face the present day format of the game????? His reply to this is that if he can play in Australia then he can very well play in SA.
The answer to all or questions will come out clear once the test series gets underway!!!I just hope he proves his critics wrong and comes through not because I am fond of him, but just because the Indian team needs a few wins under their belt!!


Lets all hope for the best!!!!
