Fascinating fightback !

Seems I can make whitesheet a cricket blog. Now-a-days cricketing news are filling me. But this fightback of WI is rather fascinating than that. Though the series is lost WI are scripting something. I am sure Australians are out of blue of this man Brian Lara! The third test is nicely poised as Lara has scripted another double and Australians at last are in trouble. Lara I think is a right man in wrong side. If he were an Australian or a burgher he would have surely gone parallel with Don Bradman. Cricinfo says more about his innings of today. The passage reads The performance the Australians had been wary of and the rest of the world had waited for through the Super Series and the first two Tests had finally arrived.

I was not a great follower of this guy. To me, the lights of his contemporaries clearly outweighed his' and comparatively they were gifted with better talent. Still he managed to operate headlines and proved capable of big things with his sheer determination. The contemporaries whom I am mentioning are Mohammed Azharuddin (upto 2000), Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid whereas the guy is Sourav Chandidas Ganguly.

Going through critical stage of his career, he has retained his position in the test squad. The selectors have said that he has been considered as an allrounder and his inclusion could add more balance to the team. I dunno how far they could justify their words but I am damn sure this would be the final opportunity for the legendary southpaw. NDTV reports that Sourav Chandidas Ganguly is included in Test team and now its (high) time for him to take up the challenge and come up with his pyrotechnics.
