The Prince of Kolkata

Sourav in many ways, has been the most loved player and the most hated player at the same time. He was so good on the off-side that even Rahul Dravid once said that "On the off-side, first there is God, then Ganguly." His influence on the Indian cricket was much more than just the runs he scored, he took over the captaincy after the Indian cricket saw its worst phase: The Fixing Saga. He is believed to be the architect of the India which lifted the Test mace for the first time.
