१००rav Ganguly

“Cometh the moment, Cometh the man”. It is yet another feat in the career of a sportsperson who is not only mindful of adversity but is master in combating it. He is a model to the core for many youngsters and individuals who see no light in the dark clouds and are drown in sharp showers of fate. He has demonstrated the entire world that determination with grit can change despair into writ. But when asked of his resilience he presents his humble best and says that the comeback was not a demonstration to someone but belief that he always belonged to the highest level.

Little did I had faith in cricket administration in India that dada would stage a comeback as I had even lost interest in the game. It reminds me of his commercial where he asks people whether they feel he is forgotten hero and assures them of his comeback. But here he shows emulation that individual must not be hapless when in despair and desperate to get desired result but have self belief that he has in him to succeed or else analyze what it takes to be at highest level and fill in the gaps steadily. Amazing character is he, it is not easy for some celebrity who is dumped in dark burrow of ashes to dig out, but he did and to shine and glitter his way is an example to many generations in years to come.

Life certainly goes in full circle. It all started with the India's tour down under in 2003-04 when Ganguly had scored a hundred and attributed that score to few adjustment after discussions with Greg Chapel. He has influenced the cricket board for Mr. Chapel as coach and then the famous squabble. His astonishing comeback and now the glorious 'sau' th game at the ground which celebrate its own 100th game and where Mr. Chapel had played at the beginning of his career. Well, well as I say beginning, I see a new chapter getting unleashed in the glorious career of Saurav Ganguly. He deserves the rave for his 100 th appearance.
