Ganguly retiring at the right time

Sourav Ganguly’s sparkling century at Mohali against the mighty Aussies proves that he still has a lot of cricket left in him. His performance in the series so far has led to an outcry amongst his fans, who are now asking him to review his retirement decision.

The mother of all battles

So after a lot of dilly-dallying on the security issue, the Australian cricket team finally touched down on Indian soil for what is being dubbed as the mother of all battles. What makes the series even more anticipated is the fact that the last series played between the two teams, when India toured Australia earlier in the year was nothing short of a duel where ‘ammunition’ was fired from both the sides, both on and off the field.

BCCI should adopt Indian Cricket League

Bangladesh Cricket Board’s decision to ban thirteen of its national players for 10 years, just because they have joined the Indian Cricket League (ICL), is really surprising. It is true that the ICL is still to get official recognition from ICC, the fact that Bangladesh cricketers will be immensely benefited from taking part in the League cannot be overlooked.

Symonds’ absence could hurt Australia

The decision of Cricket Australia (CA) to drop Andrew Symonds from the Aussie Test team for the upcoming tour of India shows that the board is determined to clean its image and prove to the cricketing world that no matter what, indiscipline would not be tolerated.

Selectors made the right decision

The Indian selectors have announced the Rest of India team for the Irani Trophy tie against Delhi. Surprisingly for some, southpaw Sourav Ganguly has been shown the door by the selectors while Yuvraj Singh also failed to make the cut.
