Keep SAURAV GANGULY in India's test squad

December 15, 2005

In a bizarre move the Indian selectors dropped Sourav Ganguly for the third Test against Sri Lanka in Ahmedabad.

The deposed India captain was given just three innings to prove his worth, out of which he performed in two. But the selectors felt he was no longer needed in the team.

Everyone who saw Ganguly's performance in the two Tests he played against the Sri Lankans will certainly feel the sacking is unfair. The left-hander had worked hard in the nets and the results showed not only in his batting but also his improved fitness and fielding.

He is 33, but one feels he has a couple of years of cricket left in him. He still boasts of a healthy average of around 40 in both versions of the game and is known to win games on his own, when in top form. He was so upset with the decision that he could not stop tears rolling down his cheeks, said a close friend of Sourav speaking to the media.

Do you agree with the selectors' decision to drop Ganguly? Well the answer is NO.

Please sign the petition and forward it to all your friends in the address book. Signatures will be sent to the president His Excellency A. P. J. Abdul Kalam who is also a great cricket fan.

Your co-operation may result in SAURAV's inclusion in the team during the Pakistan tour.
