All hail Lord Snooty

Few called him arrogant, few called him Lord Snooty, few called him selfish. Love him or hate him but you can't ignore him, Sourav Ganguly has seen it all and is all set to play his 100th test match. That is some achievement.



Ganguly’s comeback is the stuff of fairy tales.

There were some silly insinuations about the reasons he wanted to carry on playing and one of them being the money aspect. Ganguly comes from a family that has a good business running successfully for a long time still and so that would have been the last of the reasons that he wanted to continue playing. Ironically, that accusation of playing for money comes from people who haven’t exactly had successful businesses themselves and who are prepared to come to places where there is an anti feeling against them.
There were some other good performances too, especially from the batsmen with Yuvraj scoring a scorching century in his come back to the India team and also a finely compiled century from another comeback man Irfan Pathan, who also suffered like Ganguly but kept persisting with his efforts to make it back in the Test squad.
Then, just across the waters in Sri Lanka, that ultimate stylist Mahela Jayewardene painted an innings of such brilliant strokes that England looking to level the series had to take evasive action to save the Test and stay in the Series. Some stubborn batting from their captain Michael Vaughan and the weather helped them to salvage a draw and keep their hopes alive. Muralidharan captured yet another fiver and for Ishant Sharma it was his first in Test cricket so the bowlers too had their say.
The Prince of Kolkata was on the verge of joining a select list of those who have got a double century and a century in the same Test match but was agonizingly dismissed 9 short of the mark. Still that Test match and the Series belonged to only him.


I wish him all the best for the future and i hope he continues to serve India for a long time..
