Saurav Ganguly has developed a knack of defying all public opinion and make astonishing comebacks. This one cannot be categorised as a comeback though. After all, he was never quite out of reckoning. With the IPL-3 scheduled to be held in India, the Kolkatans would have surely smirked at a McCullum captaining their side with their prince riding the boundary.
So the news is finally out. Saurav Chandidas Ganguly has been reappointed captain of the Kolkata KnightRiders.
In another irrelevant piece of news, Dav Whatmore is the new coach of the Kolkata KnightRiders. There is little information about the chemistry between Whatmore and Ganguly, but knowing both of them, there is soon going to be some trouble brewing. Unless KKR win. As if that is going to happen.
Ganguly, when approached, said that he doesn’t want to say anything on this matter apart from “thank you Shah Rukh”.
I shall distance myself from this back-scratching, and take your leave for now.

SRK did say he didn't make enough money last year… Ta da. KKR is washed. Should be his last year.
and i presume by his you mean SRKs, cos even though its TADA, DADA won't budge….
I think Ganguly realises it's his last year in IPL. Remember, the initial 3- yr contract expires in 2010. So he would naturally be less abrasive. Whatmore, on the other hand, would be tentative enough not to assert himself too much. Besides, he surely has more sense than Buchanan. I won't be surprised if there is general bonhomie in KKR camp this season.
no, but really!! Does Ganguly have a remote control with him, for him? Thats the way he is, no matter what. IMHO, a coach is not needed for a fake tournament which lasts only 2 months and exists solely for money-making reasons. Yes, the players might play good cricket, but thats what they know, right?
Doesn't look like a step forward. Will be interesting to see what team combinations are used by Dada. Hopefully, egos are kept aside for the team's best interest !
dada is the best skipper, he only can lead KKR to finals.
I have a lot of confidence in dada ,,,,,,,,,,,some people sya that dada cnt But without dada the team cant move ,So I am Sure that dada will make it this time ,And MR KHAN advance congratulation as the IPL 3 winner ,because after lifting the cup You all never remember me ,So ALL THE BEST ……………
Dada have a long exprience of Skp. He love to ween everytime. He involved throughly as skp. I hope he should win the ipl3.
With best wishes.
kkr need some good bowler
Saurav Ganguly is the best skipper, he only can boost the moralof the KKR team @ need some more aggressive bowler in the team .
Dada nobdy can question u.
U always lead from the front.
Passion to do well is still there.
We pray that the winning luck remains with u.
dada will be the only leader for kkr becuse of his dedication towards cricket so according to me there are no other choice which is better than dada for kkr but i cant say if the rank is shifted to any other ,it only reflects that they have taken the chance
