Ganguly: Leave him alone
Check comments by Wadekar on Ganguly's sacking on rediff He talks about unfair world, compares it with his exit. Then derives a warning for Sachin. Well I could take all this. But the last one was too much. He says Selectors have something against all left handed Captains. ha! ha! Logic?
Wadekar retired in 70-80, selectors then and now are separate people. So you cannot compare his exit and Ganguly's exit. Ganguly has not performed for long. Everybody back then would have asked for his blood as a batsman, he played through those years b'coz he was a good captain. Today we do not need that quality, then he has to play for his first reason. He was in team as a batsman and he needs to retain that spot on merit. All those fighting for him are forgetting the basic Gangulism. Dada was good captain on merit. He is a fighter and will come back roaring on his own terms. We need not show sympathy to him. That will only take the real gangulism out of him. He needs all situations to be adverse for his comeback. That's the Ganguly you want to see and not the one who holds his place b'coz of his past dids. This is same funny logic. When you are experienced you are supposed to perform and the chances of getting away with a blunder are less. When you are young, inexperienced that's Ok, you are learning. Isn't that how it works in all other professions? We are trying to get professionalism in our team since we pay them so much.
or the betterment of Indian cricket and Ganguly, we should not create controversies where they are none. As much as I like the Ganguly, I respect the plans of selectors. Give them some time and you will have good team for future.
For the sake of Ganguly, leave him alone. It's his fight and he has to fight it alone. By showing sympathy and by fighting, protesting for him you are trying to tame the tiger. As if he cannot fight for the spot in team on merit.
As Boycott once said to Sachin from commentary box during the famous Indo-Ausi series down under "Form is temporary, Class is permanent." Simple put, Ganguly is not in form, its not the same ganguly when you compare him with his past. We want Ganguly whose comparison is with his own past. Ganguly will show his class by coming back to team but for that we need to leave him alone.
