Sourav Ganguly, who is currently in Australia, is likely to return to India for the IPL auctions which is scheduled in Bengaluru on the 4th of February. If our sources are to be believed, Ganguly is likely to forego his commentary assignment for the tri-series between India, Australia and Sri Lanka in order to practice for the upcoming Vijay Hazare trophy starting 20th February. Ganguly, who had a successful season with Bengal (he averaged 53 in 6 matches, scored 2 half centuries and 1 century and also picked 3 wickets) in the recently concluded Ranji Trophy injured himself while batting in his last match. If his injury doesn’t heal completely, he might give the Vijay Hazare trophy a miss. Time will tell.
Ganguly’s commitment and passion for the game and desire to do well is visible as the Indian Legend who turns 40 in July is keen on playing as much domestic cricket as possible to get fit for the upcoming season of IPL. Ganguly’s presence in the IPL adds spice to the already lucrative and exciting competition with all eyes on the match between PWI and KKR at Eden Gardens on 5th May.
Yuvraj Singh who was the captain of Pune Warriors in 2011 has been ruled out of the 5th season of IPL. This is a big blow to the Pune Warriors who lacked fire-power in their batting in the last season. But with Ganguly at the helm, we may just see a turnaround in the mental approach of the team that has a very strong bowling line-up and pretty capable batting line-up.
