It is because MSD got captwincy awarded and by that time Ind is studded with talentful players......had Sourav been continued till 2010 and he was in captaincy , I hope Ind would have reaped much more benefits.....if he was there till 2010 the Odi team would have read a MY IDEAL 11 as Sourav, Sachin, Uthappa, Sehwag, Yuvraj, Raina, Dhoni, Irfan Pathan, Harbhajan, Zaheer, Shami/Bhuvi/Munaf/L Balaji as 11th (removing Dravid, VVS after 2007WC completely).....giving youngsters a chance during that time apart from Yuvi, Viru, MSD is not a good thought and could have limited places to these players mostly....Post 2011 WC Sourav, Sachin, Dravid, VVS retiring at a time WOULD HAVE BEEN LOOKED AWESOME....Then would have welcomed PLAYING 11 of Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Sehwag ,Yuvi, Dhoni, Raina, Amit Misra, Shami, Zaheer, Praveen Kumar......After 2019WC Sehwag, Yuvi, Dhoni, Raina, Misra must have been replaced.......I feel phasewise replacement of no players was also not taken care of properly, disrespected seniors from BCCI without proper farewell including seniors listed above .....one more problem is the outburst of T20 cricket saw many pool of players inpour ..

Thank you for bringing up this topic

Good video. Just a few pronunciation correction though: 2:53 The correct pronunciation is "Maidaas", not "Midaas". 6:00 "con-tent", not "cuntent". Also, 3:30 "jigaentic", not "jijaentic". Hope you get what I mean.

When I was young I wasted a lot of time watching cricket and following these players like they were deities. I wish I had better invested my time in personal growth. Jab tak desh me cricket aur Bollywood rahega tab tak koi tarakki nahi hoga.

Dada is a type of character to which you will never find a parallel in any other Cricketer

Dilip Vengsarkar was always against Ganguli's iclusion in team India way back from 1992 Australia tour. His biased nature continued even when he served as BCCI president. Vengsarkar himself was a mediocre player who just survived bcaz of the strong Mumbai lobby. He always cemented his place in team India just with some stray performances during 80's ultimately ending his career with a disastrous performance of Autralia tour of 1992. Mumbai lobby ruined many great careers just to cement places of many mediocre, bull shit cricketers in team India.

9:10 HUNGRY ENOUGH to tear down detractors.. meanwhile today's cricketers we dont read the news, in other words we DON'T CARE for detractors. We do as we wish, we can opt international series break when we WANT, we opt to play full ipl if we WANT, we skip optional practice before international games when we WANT.. we dare not get dropped even if we dont perform for 1/2/3/4 years without centuries. But if we want we skip series as per our demands, or we threaten to resign.

[@focasedu]

Why does it sound like history is gonna repeat again 🙃🙃🙃 this time with another aggressive captain, Kohli

[@krishnasanyal7]

Well I hope and would love to see that he proves himself similarly as well but IMHO and TBH this seems to be impossible currently

The way the slogan "We want ganguly" affected a bengali heart is unexplainable...

[@papaithesailorman]

Those were the days before viral videos in social media would amount to socio-political movements or revolutions. Yet this ad proved crucial in cementing the immediate future of Indian cricket. As Dada's fans however we felt a certain cringe as for why did he have to beg for public support through this commercial platform? Now that we get to know the real story behind, we feel amazed. A very well-researched work. All the best for future videos 👍

My brother was an avid Ganguly fan and I remember he stopped watching cricket after Ganguly was ousted. In terms of contribution to indian cricket , he should be there at the top along with Kapil Dev , Sachin , Dravid etc.
