And Indian Cricket will never be the same again....


Sourav Ganguly retires from Indian cricket....

And with him he takes way a lot of things.

No more arrogance and aggression mixed together to piss off the oponents,

No more six over midwicket to left arm spinners,

No more 'GOD' on the off-side shots,

No more making captains wait for the toss,

No more spice in Indian cricket,

No more hundred on debut and a duck in the last innings,

No more stripping at Lords,

No more controversies,

No more 'in your face' attitude,

No more perfect comebacks,

No more spicy news for 24x7 new channels in India,

No more DADA,'Prince of Calcutta', in the Indian cricket team.

'Finally,the tiger broke free.....'















Some nice articles on Ganguly - http://greatbong.net/2008/11/13/soft-victory/

P.S- I feel the Ganguly saga will continue for a longer period of time , as old issues will be brought up, specially if he decides to write his autobiography.
