	"Die Sourav Die" \|\| Indian Cricket Fever - Unofficial Indian Cricket News and Views
		Canards were spread that Ganguly faked injury, spread discontent in the team--accusations intended to undermine Ganguly's reputation of never playing politics in the team based on personal equations (a charge Ganguly's predecessors in the captains seat cannot deflect off easily).
		The investigation of the board cleared Ganguly of the charges of faking an injury--yet the coach, who had been proved to be a liar, was not taken to task.
		Ever since I read that Ganguly does not give them quotable quotes and instead pampers to a select coterie of journalists--I knew that the staffers were waiting with their knives out ready to plunge it in when he slipped up.

		Neither does it help the Ganguly PR that this tigerish determination is married to a certain natural hauteur.

	We love Sourav
		Sourav Ganguly makes me more acutely aware of my identity than any other thing simply because anti-Gangulyism is strongly followed by and often driven by anti-Bengalism - a surprisingly powerful and undeniably perceptible sentiment I have felt more than once in my life in the company of fellow Indians.
		Simply because Ganguly does not give them quotable quotes and instead pampers a select coterie of journalists - as a result those outside the "circle of trust" have been waiting with their knives out ready to plunge it in when he slipped up.
		Ganguly had the guts to reply these back with a spat and revitalize the team with new energy.

	An Open Letter of Apology to Sourav Ganguly, His Fans & Our Critics
		• We also openly praised and highlighted Ganguly’s two vital contributions against Sri Lanka when he managed to stay unbeaten overnight, thereby preventing batting collapses, and we questioned why a player who had barely defended eight balls in the two innings edged out Ganguly and won a place in the team.
		However, we maintain that if he fought back and earned a place in the team again, that would be a well-earned feat and we would be happy for him and his supporters.
		It is becoming apparent that the benchmarks used in excluding Ganguly from the side were a prerogative reserved for Ganguly alone and are deliberately being ignored in the case of other players.

		He might have got the nickname 'Maharaj' for his regal ways on and off the field, but for Sourav Ganguly it is now much more than mere nomenclature.
		A team man to the core, Ganguly's captaincy and his ability to keep his boys united have drawn praise from all quarters, with past players finding common ground between Ganguly and all-time great Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi.
		The fact that the big three – Ganguly, Tendulkar and Dravid – lend their names to the new players' association is itself an indicator of how the skipper works to instill confidence among lesser mortals in Indian cricket.
