Hi . I just want to know all your views on Saurav Ganguly's return to the side . He did fairly well on the SA tour . But is the team comfortable having him , or is it going to break the side and spread tension and politics in the team ?? Please respond ..

hey sorry to just distract you but you know what i would like to say that now india is at the peak of its what we say bad form and it is not only that any of the one person is responsible for it. whether the qestion is: Q.should sourav be made the captain of the team? Q.is sourav giving the team what people were expecting after his come back? Q.sehwag is not playing good? Q.tendulkar out of form? Q.dravid took this or that decision wrong? Q.the coach is not good? Q.the coach is more a politician? Q.wrong decision of the board of taking this bowler in the team whereas the other one was required? Q.coach taking gangully case personal? ...... and many mre do not you people think that all what is happening is not good and what these people are doing is just decreasing their world cup chances? do not you think that it is not the problem with one person whole team is responsible? wrong strategies,bad form... what is this is this what indian team has to show to the world that we are the one?

i think ganguly has canged a lot. now he will just try to perform well and thats all. as of his return i think he has silenced all his critics including the coach and some senior players like kapil dev.

Yes he does look fitter and hungrier for runs this time around . He performed decently against South Africa . But ca he change India's fortunes is another question ..

the return was much anticipated by cricket lovers like me who condemn the mumbaikar lobby and love the country. Maharaj remains the indisputed hero of indian cricket :what a comeback!?! the only guy who crossed the 200 run mark in south africa a great slap on the face to the ex-selection committee chairman who is better known for removing dada rather than his own on-field exploits! now lets hope dida(thatz what the bengal players call him) comes back in the one day side and becomes the captain of the team that he has nurtured and inspired for five long years. we are proud of him.having said tht i'm talking about indians at large and not just bengalis! dada u ROCK! cheers and god bless!!

Well he is almost certain to be back in the one day team as well . But to make him captain again will embark another controversy . It could even break up the team further . Thats the danger !

cricket in india is not played like it is in rest of the world .our cricket is field with politics.u all know that saurav was thrown out of the team because of politics.so,i think saurav will only get chance if there is some political pressure and if the selector find that it will favour them.if the selectors and mr. chappel see that saurav will cause them trouble then saurav will not get chance even if he makes triple hundred.they will manage some excuse for keeping him out the team.

I partly agree with you on the politics point you made, but I do not think that the selectors would have the guts to axe him even if he performs decently . This, especially considering the plight of the team and the poor form of other senior players . There would be a riot for an unjust expulsion at this point !!

hi.. I think ganguly is playing well after his return this might be due to his hardwork but still getting out due to weak shots. Ganguly can into team due to political pressure...but still he playing well.

I think that ganguly has made a great come back to the Indian side and will definately will taken in the one day team. He was the higest run scorer for India in this series and had shown very good batting form. I don't think that he will get involved in any of the politics.
