Sourav Ganguly ’s Kolkata Knight Riders take on the Bangalore Royal Challengers in the Indian Premier League cricket tournament
In the next couple of hours, the Indian Premier League (IPL) will be underway and Sourav Ganguly ’s Kolkata Knight Riders will play against the Bangalore Royal Challengers.
I have always been a great fan of Sourav Ganguly ’s captaincy and this will be a great opportunity to watch Sourav ’s captaincy against his “good friend” Rahul Dravid ’s Royal Challengers
Sourav Ganguly has been India’s best captain ever, but handling the diverse dressing room of the Kolkata Knight Riders will not be easy
Sourav Ganguly is a masterly leader and the way he handled the batting greats of Indian cricket, namely Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman suggest that he will be equal to handling Ricky Ponting,Hussey and Chris Gayle
Sourav Ganguly brings to the table his own brand of no-nonsense die-hard captaincy, along with his incredible people handling skills. One would have to watch how his Kolkata Knight Riders team fares especially against the pace bowling of Dale Steyn
Will Sourav Ganguly be late for IPL ’s inaugural toss and will Rahul Dravid be subjected to the Steve Waugh treatment? Probably Not!

Damien Martyn showed his class for the first time in the ICL World series cricket match. Damien Martyn’s innings came at the right time for the ICL (Indian Cricket League) ,midst allegations in some quarters that the leading cricket stars of the cricketing world such as Brian Lara were simply lured by the moolah offered, and were not pulling their weight
Damien Martyn has finally struck good form, will the legendary Chris Cairns (my favorite allrounder) also play another match winning innings

Ambati Rayadu played an incredible knock as the Hyderabad Heroes win the Indian Cricket League
Ambati Rayadu played a set of great knocks as the Hyderabad Heroes progressively got better and finally beat the Indian Cricket League
Ambati Rayadu was never given a chance by the Indian cricket selectors but proved his immense talent in the ICL
Ambati Rayadu was always termed as a flawed cricket batsmen by the Indian cricket selectors and cricketing pundits, but anyone who saw his incredible knocks in the ICL (Indian Cricket League) finals will appreciate his immense talent
Ambati Rayadu played well even against the great bowling attack of the Lahore Badshahs
The Lahore Badshahs had an incredible bowling attack with Naved-Ul-Hassan, Mohammed Sami,Mushtaq and Saqlain forming an incredible dream bowling combination
Rayadu however,showed his worth by being the only player in the Hyderabad Heroes to effectively counter this amazing bowling attack
Ambati Rayadu ’s great performance in the ICL once again underscores the talent that Indian cricket is missing, due to the banning of the ICL cricket players
