Dada’s last series- A winning one with Aussies!!

Ganguly’s last series went through a real roller coaster as his cricketing life itself.

 

Fantastic come back by the Australia on the third and fourth day…but the last day of this Historic series was near perfect, with spinners doing the work, the fielders, well dropped some catches as usual which is expected from India.

However this series showed we have out performed Australia in more ways than one with batsmen’s contribution and bowlers’ perfect execution. The thing which i liked about this one is that the pitch this time was all world standard and is not typically a spinning one. Eight years back this day, Ganguly started his innings of becoming the India’s most successful captain. Well leaving all the bias i would say Ganguly not only showed a new face of Indian cricket, aggressive, competitive but also a team really to reckon with. Dhoni probably did the best thing in the last day by asking him to captain in the final moments of the game after missing a sitter early in the day.

A real historic day for Indian Cricket where Indians totally dominated the series and shook the Australian cricket’s post after a long long time, and an end of Ganguly era which showed no regionalism and partiality and probably  gave India the best players of this era.

Over-all Ganguly can be really happy going out in such a high( i don’t even remember if there is any Indian circketer off-let who retired in such a note) looking at his prodigies doing well and shouldering India forward.
