The Prince who became King
"When you pick a player, give him five Tests, five one-dayers, before you close the chapter."
This change is attitude advocated by Ganguly is certainly one of the best things to happen to Indian cricket in a long, long time. Gone are the constant chop and change tactics.
The youngsters -- Mohammad Kaif, Yuvraj Singh, Ashish Nehra, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan -- have all had their dips in form, but the captain kept faith in them.
Among the seniors, even Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar have had the support of their skipper.
