Yes, due to following reasons:\n\n1)  He got good rapport with all the players and Coach\n2)  He has got a very solid defence and sound technique.\n3)  He is such a batsman that bowlers have to earn his\n     wicket.\n4)  Very calm and cool player and will not get carried away.\n5)  He got all the qualities of a good leader. \n6)  He has bailed out India from tight situations on many\n     occsions.

sourav aint carryin' a gud attitude..agreed! but i really dun think d cricket board shud treat him d way they hv in d recent past..puttin him in and out so frequently knowingly dat he's d most successful captain India has ever produced..includin' him in tests and not in ODI's when dey know he's made 10,000+ runs in d latter form of d game... how can u expect him to perform at his best today whn he's again knocked of d one-day squad yes'day???

Age is catching up on him and he refuses to accept it. My view is that like Saurav, he has his eyes on the World Cup. Both want to end their career after that. Just look at the talent that we have right now, and to think of it, a year back the whole game would revolve around Sachin. Agreed that he's one of the greatest of his time, but nothing in this world lasts forever.

not captaincy atleast they have to let him to play as a member. we need desperately experiance in the alien conditions like WI,ENG,AUS,SA,NZ.....\nindian team is looking very patchy because no one is there with real good experiance except DRAVID,KUBLE and LAXMAN..... \nWHY dont we give chance to GANGULY,AGARKAR(who is the only bowler to impress in onedayers against WI because of experiance) \n\nDAMN BULLSHIT PLANNING BY CHAPPEL AND BLOODY SHORT GUY KIRAN MORE AND OTHER GREAT PEOPLE WHO NEVER KNOW HOW TO CATCH A BALL IN BCCI \nSHOULD TAKE IT SERIOUSLY AND THINK BOUT IT AND DO SOME THING QUICKLY SO THAT WE CAN BE GOOD TEAM IN WI IN 2007 . \n\nmind that we lost to no 9 team in world and if it is the case with AUS,SA,ENG,NZ  AND OTHER THEN WHAT IS OUR PLAN????????? IN THE SAME PLASES WE ARE GOING TO PLAY IN 2007 ......

Definitely.  He has achieved so may Laurels by winning the game when he was the captain.  Now he has reformed .Let us give him one more chance. He is still young and talented

I believe Dravid is a greater batsman because he has led india to many victories & has got india out of trouble a lot of times.Tendulkar hasn't won us that many games as he could have.Also Dravid is selfless,doesn't chase records & is a way better captain than Tendulkar was.

first of all,\nkudos to you for asking a very different and intelligent question\n yes i agree completely, a batsman like dravid for example is considered to be technically one of the best batsman in the world right now because of his ability to successfully tackle all kinds of oppositions under different playing conditions.Thus a batsmen who has his basics right and plys 'textbook' shots having also a solid defence is going to survive all kinds of attacks\n though let me say that such kind of play requires lots of patience and hardwork so it is kinda difficult even for the likes Dravid to play like this always.

not all the great and legend players are good captains. \n\nDravid ofcourse he is the spine for all the indian victories from last decade but i dont think he is the right person.\n\nsee what is happening, i am not criticising because it lost the series with WI , but  to become a good team , they have to win in alien places. \n\nand until now dravid won in india , pakisthan  even pakisthan is sub continent and similar pitches like home. its not enough.they have to win overseas series convinsingly.\n\nuntil that we cant deciede wether he is right or wrong. may be time will give right answere

I agree with you. If at all he is worlds best batsman, he need to adapt to team's requirement. If he comes two down , ideally after 20 th over and can stay till end to stabilise the innings.

yes,he should because when he was captain he plays good cricket even now also.ups and downs always come in the way of good cricketer.when sunil gavaskar was not in form but he has done a good captainship.so he should play as a captian.i admire him.

It is POLITICS.\n\n\nYES HE SHOULD PLAY.\n\nBUT THAT WILL NOT SOLVE ALL THE PROBLES.\n\nWhat then?\n\nPRESENT LOT be REMOVED. S/SHRI\nBCCI-PAWAR\nSELECTOR-VENSARKAR\nCOACH-CHEPPAL\nCAPTAIN-DRAVID, SEWAG\nTHE WHOLE TEAM.\n\nA fresh selection is made after deciding criteria for selection for each post. For example DRAVID WILL MAKE 10 - 63 RUNS IN 108 BALLS, It is equivalent to 30 - 160 runs in 50 overs. Such negative play to be retained in the team can make individual statistics good, BUT INDIA CAN NEVER WIN. \n\nSUNIL G. also did same thing.\n\nThey are good for test but not for ODI.\n\nIn the selection criteria shall ensure that these negative factors are taken in account.\n\nSECONDLY,\n\nIf team does not win,\nchange 2 b,man, 2 blrs, 1 all rndr, 1 wickt kpr ( if did not do well).\n\nIf team does not win series,\n\nREMOVE\n\nBCCI-PAWAR, \nSELECTOR-VENSKR\nCOACH-CEPAL\nCAPTAIN-DRVD, SWG\nTHE WHOLE TEAM\n\nMake again a fresh selection.\n\nINDIA IS FULL WITH TALENT BUT POLITICS AND REGIONALISM HAS MADE IT A ROT.\n\nPl come out of POLITICS and REGIONALISM.\nGive chance to the BEST CAPABLE, RESPONSIBLE INDIAN.\n\n\nI AM SURE INDIA WILL WIN AGAINST ANY TEAM IN THE WORLD.\n\nIs it ok?\n\nSURELY.

If our Cricket board can get rid of these grave politics, there is no reason why a worldclass player like Sourav cannot represent his nation in Worldcup.\nHow can we forget that we proceeded to the finals of the last WorldCup under his Captaincy?\nWe should always choose the best team for reaching the ultimate goal, and I think Sourav will fit the slot by his own charisma.

you are correct! captaincy should be changed!\n\nonly 3 players an be retained : Dhoni,Kumble, and Zaheer Khan\nplayer who can be considered :Tendulkar, harbhanjan and Dravid\n\nrest :Shewag ,Kaif ,pathan,Mongia,Kharthik,Jaffer,Agarkar,Raina\nshould be dropped forever!!\n\nthey had lot of chances or they are not suitable for one days!!\n\nYuvraj and gaugu ly can come back for their experience!\n\nShould introduce fresh batsman fast bowler and spinner!\n\nIf even after that we fail , we  know that we move upwards otherwise India wont improve

Of course, Ganguly should be brought back and should also be made the captain.\nHis records as captain are much better than anyone else.\nIndia will definitely defeat Australia and no one can stop India from winning the World Cup this time.\nGanguly is a victim of the deep politics going on between the selectors and the BCCI.

He is a batsman in the India cricket team, and a very good one. He has been captain, but I don't think he is at the moment.

I personally feel what ever has been done with Ganguly is unjustice hey! whatever it was, he was our Captain..If he's not back in the team that's ok coz he have young lads who need more opportunity but atleast show such courtesy and give him respect and a good farewell when he wants..and if that is if, there is a way give him a chance to play.

Nope! He had his stint as a player n a captain.. well it ended unfortunately..but anyways I dont think he should be called back..Coz' there are many other players who are in line to take up his place and I think all this outcry and stuff about getting him back should end now, It has been so many months.. So Chill Everyone..Ganguly is the "past" of Indian Cricket now..
