Dada saved the future of 🇮🇳 cricket, let alone Bhajji's. He brought in Sehwag, Zaheer, Yuvi, Kaif and Bhajji and many others..... 2011 Indian team might have won the WC, but 2003 WC team is the " DREAM COME TRUE" team. I really wish we get another team like that.
He even fought for Kumble in one of the matches
Even dhoni later on

Dada is the reason many non cricket lovers turned to cricket in early 2000s.
Absolutely. After Dada left cricket, I quit watching cricket and fell back to football again!!..
I was always a fan of Sachin, until 2003 world cup the match against Kenya in which India needed 230 odd runs to win, Sachin , sehwag all were gone back to pavilion and then comes Ganguly to save the day and won it for India by scoring century.
I switched off the TV when Sachin got out and thought India would lose, but next day I came to know Ganguly lead the team to win

@@swapnilmakur2198 Kenya was strong and reached semi final of wc2003
There have been many great captains in cricket, but seldom has been a captain who could change the nation's attitude towards cricket like Dada did.
Ekdom bhai
Being an Aussie, I always respected Dada for never backing down against us. We got a taste of our own medicine!
Prime Australia from the late 90s to 07 were like the Brazillian football team of cricket. Lot of Indians still have PTSD from that 03 final.. but now when I think back I feel lucky to have witnessed one of the greatest cricketing sides of all time.
2001-2005 indian team was more like a family than a team. Each player looked after the other. Players from small towns created big impacts and became pillars of the team. Dada stood against the system and it paved way for current set of legends that we are celebrating.
Absolutely. The players of that team were more than professionals, they learnt to be good friends. After all true friendship helps you win matches honestly and celebrate the victories in grand style. This video reflects on the importance of friendship in building a nice team of genuinely talented players committed to play for their nation.
An era where every player was loved by the people unconditionally. Today we have Virat fans hating Rohit and Rohit fans hating Virat. 2003 WC ICT is an emotion ❤️. 2K IPL nibbas and nibbies will never see such an international team with such bonding.
and then came Greg chappel
Being a 90's kid I know what dada had done for the team.

Yes
Yes, his batting created those magical moments on fields, which every child loves to watch on the screen.
Tell us!!
@@KINGKong-bn2yg made the team, layed the foundation which we see today and which we saw in the years
Ganguly’s men could even die for him. Such was his glamour. He was a true leader and he still is. He used to lead and fight from the front.
A true champion.
Well said
So true
Nailed it bro 🙏🙏🙏
Yeah that's why they didn't support him when he was dropped by chappel😂
@@rishabhadarsh5227 thats why little knowledge is dangerous thing..Yuvraj and Harbhajan had raised voices at that point of time..but they were threatened by bcci officials at that point of time
Today's kids hardly have a clue what a stalwart Sourav Ganguly aka Dada was to the Indian cricket fraternity.
The only thing missing from Dada's kitty is the 2003 WC trophy 🏆, India got outplayed that day by the Aussies.
Outplayed and out-nerved.
yeah, outplayed by Buckner
Nothing different bro after 20 years
2011 WC was won by Dhoni, the foundations and team was built by Sourav.
Yuvraj, Zaheer, Sehwag even Dhoni were introduced by Sourav.
Just 3-4 players don’t build a team bro.
Every player has to be introduced or supported by some one... don't advertise it..and it's a joke that Dada built 2011 team. 2011 team was combination of young and experience Ashwin,Raina,Yusuf,gambhir,Kohli led by good captain MS.
@@pratikpatil6611 Imagine Yuvraj not being in team BRO!
@@vaibhavkadam4482 someone would've rised for the occasion...what about 2013 champions trophy..yuvraj didn't exists that time and India win with new generation team full of youngsters.
@@rajun4750 champions trophy is not a world cup for us. Dhoni is just a credit stealer. Yuvraj never got honoured for what he had done.
in those days if do parties for winning against AUS in our home land, but now, Australians are celebrating for winning against india in their Home Land. That far we have come today....Proud to be an Indian.
When?
After wining only one series?? Another series won 2 years back vs asusi not worth becuase moral of ausis is very low.

Great said
What's there to be proud of ? 🙄
The transition between two generations - Azharuddin & Dhoni, Lies the living legend Dada.
Hands down. Hats off.
As a Pakistani watching this i am amzed at the sheer brilliance of dadas captaincy. I was born 5 years later but hearing about this match just shows how beautiful cricket is if it is played right
did i ask?
jk thats cool man
@@aryan7767😂😂
Yeah! I used to love sachin, yuvraj, sehwag and keeper dhoni for they were demi gods on their day. But i grew respectful of dada and captain dhoni when I realized the burden of leadership they shouldered everyday.
Watching this video made me realize that captaincy is not a burden but a memorable and learning experience.
I watched that match in Eden Gardens.. Was in school back then.... I call that the greatest match of all time... Will remember it all my life.... Nothing will top that....
“Balled by Harbhajan and Engineered by Ganguly” made my day
We should never forget our Dadas contribution to the Indian Cricket 💪🏻🙏😊
Anyone who had seen and followed Indian cricket closely upto 2000 nd then followed that 2001 series upto Pak series of 2004 will surely tell u how a man transformed a Cricket team, a team of happy travellers into a aggressive, fighting and winning bunch..
Even if they lost, they didn't lose without a fight.
Sourav Ganguly was and is will forever be an emotion and also that team which gave us numerous moments of joy.❤️
Second test against Australia 2001 changed all for Indian cricket. VVS, Dravid and Harbhajan performed extraordinarily which saved the lucky Ganguly but then one makes ones luck. Ganguly never looked back and became one of the best Captain Indian(which made us Indians very proud) ever had though his batting suffered. This is what India is about players from all over India become great friends.
This is inspirational especially with Dada's quote "Leadership is an amazing disease it either cures you or kills you but if you can rise upto its challenge, prove yourself equal to its demand it is the best job in this world."
Sourav Ganguly was one of the finest cricketer that we ever had... He was a strong pillar of our national team... When he used to play it was sure he won't disappoint the fans... God bless Dada 🙏
He is not the one of the finest. He is the finest player of all no one come close to dear dada
Ganguly gave a spot to Dhoni and made him set in team...
Rest is history...
Respecto Dada..
Proud to be MSDian
But the same Ms Dian ruin the carrier of the boys like bajji, yuvi, zaheer, sehwag,gambhir who was intruduced by Dada..! Even ifran pathan didn't get lot of chance who is bowling every swings In cricekt (like offcutter legcutter, inswing, outswing, reverse swing and batting too at middle orders ) where is this..!
Ganguly literally brought in almost whole of 2011 World Cup winning Indian team including Dhoni
Ganguly is obviously a great story
Ganguly
Yuvi
Sehwag
Luxman
Zaheer.
Bhaji
Srinath
Dravid
Kaif.
Tendulkar
Nehra
Dream team... All are legends
Dhoni laugh in the corner

Never ever ask if we want a video from U. Anything U do is pure Gold and the narration along with your voice. Soothing stuff for any cricket fanatic
you exactly stole my word man
That what I was about to comment
agreed
Second, third, and fourth that
Dude his narration is very bad
Please make a video regarding Dada's captaincy. His journey was truly an inspiring one full of ups and downs. He has given India the heroes that we celebrate today as gods. He gave India the attitude we needed and then showed the world that we can reply back too.
If possible please make a video about how some big foreign so called "cricket specialists" still gives humiliating statements about Indian pitches and Indain player's attitude. It's like they forget the English and Aussie bouncy pitches. If you come to India, you'll get spin. So better be prepared for that. And also like they forget the attitude of 90s and 00s Aussie and English players and their sledging.
If possible please make a video regarding these topics. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
There's already one - Dada's attitude that revolutionized Indian Cricket
@@saiajay6663 thanks for informing
@@abhimania6707 but one video shd be for his comeback also...this guy knows a lot of stories...
The problem with Aussie players is they are quite used to sledging. Its a part of their culture. They might not even consider it as a wrong practice.
I have also heard about recent initiatives that have been taken in Australian sports camps to reduce unfair practices like sledging or bullying on the field.
Sourav Ganguly is known for his leadership skills he knows which player has potential and to whom he needs backing him true leader true Nationalist
That series CANNOT be forgotten! Never ever! It still remains one of the legendary series of test match cricket, even after so much cricket has happened after that series or even hundreds of years of test cricket prior to it. I lived through it! The aura of Aussies, their invincibility! The theme of the "last frontier"! And then Indian cricket and Ganguly capitancy on the edge and on the line! It was David vs Goliath! And as happened back then, David won! And so started the new rise of Indian cricket! The young indian brigade! Oh loved that series for what it transpired into! In essence, Ganguly enabled the Dhonis, Kohlis, Bhuvis we say today as stars of Indian cricket as he installed the unwavering never say die attitude for which Indian cricket will always be indebit to Ganguly! Now he is the leader of BCCI and must help Kohli in this difficult time. It is great to see Indian cricket at such heights!
My favourite Captain of Indian Cricket team 🔥Dada🙌
Awesome explanation.....the way Arjuna ranatunga backed muralitharan and made him legend the same way ganguly stood by harbhajan and made him the way he is ....
Never Give up Fighting Spirit of Saurav Ganguly. The Real Dada of Indian Cricket.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Indian cricket had different era, namely, before and after Kapil Dev, before and after Dada, before and after MSD
Rest all is RIP.
Fab5 is the reason not just us but our kids play cricket
yesss
And in all these eras one name is common....The Great Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar...and people say Virat is better than him
@@deepakbhardwaj8286 ignorance is bliss.
22 years of consistency and fitness is something you cannot achieve without tremendous mental strength. That's true aggression.
@@deepakbhardwaj8286 Sachin is the legend none can ever be compared to. I miss so much the 'Sachin Saachin' shout during his batting. It still rings in my ear to this day. After all, I grew old with that sound.
Saurav Ganguly and Dhoni always be remembered as a revolutionary of Indian 🏏 team ❤️
Born in 2002, I used to hear this from my papa, chacha and mamas that Ganguly's team was this and that and I used to get confused as a kid back then. But, your channel's few videos have helped me understand that Dada had made a team, wherein every guy went on to become a superstar of Indian cricket team.
The players and the team at those times was an emotion, the joy of seeing them on television with all the family members even neighbours was a true emotion, nowadays it seems like a glamour show and more like a business.
Being born in early 80's we know what Indian team was before 2000 as Betting meltdown created disgust amongst cricket lover's.People stopped going to stadiums & BCCI add revenues decreased by 70%. It was Dada who bought back audience backbto cricket & created Team India of today.He was & will be the bravest captain of a cricket team which could exist.
Dada...!!!!
Ye naam ki kaafi hai.
Pride of Bengal 😇😇
I have no idea why there is a lump in my throat. Brilliant video and knowing how the team went from strength-to-strength thereafter, so proud of Dada. Amazing storytelling!
👍🏻 Dada's Rise to Captaincy ✌🏻
Watching the miracle at Eden live was unbelievable. Because we had a construction going on in school - we got revised hours for that week 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM - by sheer luck or chance I was able to watch India win this epic test match and fell in love with test cricket
Yes, we do like to see what happened behind while the Dada leading team India in the tough times of Indian cricketing history.
I really loved the word u used "Engineering"... yes, we are best in world cricket because of his and other legendary players (Kapil,Sachin etc.,) commitment for the game and Face of India in the World Cricket.
Love You Dada...
From all the time Sachin fan
This was the toughest series against Aus and thats why this team was soo special...what a team Aus had....
I still recall watching that 2001 match, Laxman, Dravid, Ganguly & Harbhajan. It was fun.
dada was the one who gave us gems like turbanator, nawab of najafgarh, zaheer khan , mohd kaif, yuvi , he was the one who built a great indian team , unlike someone who was handed a great indian team
Dada dropped the established players... When they were out of form to try the youngsters... Check virat... If he drops old established players... He'll be questioned... Although... He himself gave players like washi , siraj , gill , shaw , vihari , shardul , axar , chahal... Its the success of these players in the future which will determine the contribution of virat... You cant judge him in the present... It is the 2011 world cup which made you realize how big the contribution of dada was... Had the bowling lineup not got injured... This wouldn't have happened...
If ur talking about dhoni, he won the 2007 t20 world cup with an average age of 23, and the 2013 champions trophy with no seniors. If ur talking about kohli, he made a killer bowling machine in over 2 years, and won in australia and england, so ur wrong about anyone ur talking about
@@pranavdixit6328 dhoni was also made by dada.
@@roll1swarnajeetaich9b42 I know that, but thats not the point, the point is that he is saying that everyone else got a seasoned team, but no one says Dada had dravid, tendulkar, laxman, srinath, kumble,agarkar at there peak
@@pranavdixit6328 forget Australia he had to face SA, NZ, Pak even Zimbabwe at its peak so fab 5 didn't have this huge stalwart image then
2001 Australia series started my love with this beautiful game. I still remember the Dravid-Laxman partnership, Harbhajan's hat-trick and Hayden's sweep shots.
Ranatunga and Ganguly all time best captains whom I have seen .
I have heard about Clive Lloyd and Kapil Dev but never seen them as captain as I was very young back then.
Sorry, but if you don't add Hansie Cronje of SA, Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting of Aus in the list, the list will remain incomplete.
The finishing line on leadership was the best of all. So true.
People say Dhoni is the best captain of the Indian Cricket team so far! Well they haven't watched 2003 WC :)
If I remember correctly, Chandidas Ganguly wanted him to become a footballer and play for Eas Bengal rather than a Cricketer, but He wanted to become a Cricketer because of his brother and hence the switching of Batting Stance as well
It was Chandidas Ganguly who made him switch to cricket. Chandidas Ganguly himself was an ex cricketer (played as a medium fast bowler for Aryans) and was the honorary treasurer of the CAB when Snehashish and Sourav were representing Bengal, respectively.
Later on, Sourav went on to play for Mohun Bagan's Cricket team in 1st division Kolkata league. The story of Tutu Bose signing him for MB not leaving a hint to the rivals East Bengal is one of the greatest stories Kolkata maidan. You can find that on the internet.
I remember that series.... It was the greatest test series ever played on the planet...
An entire episode on Dada's captaincy journey, if not the playing journey, is warranted. Have always been Saurav's biggest fan, so natural for me to request you for something like that. He is an enigma of Indian Cricket as the great Aussie Cricket writer Peter Roebuck called him in his homage to his playing career, back in 2008.
Dada's career needs to be made in a full fledged series.
Brilliant!

Lovely how the person who was a stepping stone to the heights of Indian Team now is hated by this toxic kids
Dada's captaincy wasn't really threatened with the Australia tour as he was a newly appointed captain, Jagmohan Dalmiya was the BCCI president and Australia was rampaging. However, what this series did was to seal Dada as a legendary captain
Started at 1998 to change completely from *March 11 - 15, 2001* the fate of world cricket especially The BCCI once and for all🎉❤
Its a great vedioo already when the topic is dada🔥🔥
Vedio 😎😎
Having been a witness to the miracle in Kolkata and living through this incredible series I can say that your video is just fantastic!
Thank you for reminding me that moments because that time 2001 I just started to play cricket and rather than watching match in black and white TV I love to play in sunny ground.
I can't remember Chennai test 2001 the TV screen but I can remember my father's shouting and joy at last ball Wicket taken by Bhajii Sir...and the fire crackers sound are roaming throughout the Kolkata...
Thank You again 🙏 for goosebumps me and water in eyes.
I personally feel the bowlers of Indian team are underrated... & The biggest Test accomplishments are overshadowed by the regular ODIs... You covered both bowlers & Test accomplishments
As a SriLankan i love Ganguly he never backs down. never ever
he also a clever guy
2:45 Yes I seriously want to know about that. Please make a video about this topic 🤲
I like to see the vudeo about how gangly got captaincy.
MS, virat and Dravid were great captains.. But DADA will always be my captain forever.. He taught us that we were not just some little nice guys who could be pushed around by rash white men over and over.. He taught us that we had the same right to that cricket field as any men.. He forever changed the face of Indian youth and cricket.. Love DADA...
Sourav the ideal Alpha he redefined and changed the landscape of Indian cricket and BCCI.
Dada: the Real king of indian cricket.
Ganguly was a legend
Thank you for yet another great video. I would love for you to make a video about the match-fixing scandal!
Dada has been my favourite player from a long time, he thinks different, he handles different, really a very tough guy to be against him,
Thanks for making us know abt the best Indian captain....guys these days don't know anything abt Ganguly and his stories ...rather than MSD movie! ...go ahead Dada ...am one of the guys behind you!
All Legends…n HS inspiration 🙌
20 years n still that test is lit 🔥
Bhajji = Legend! 🔥
Thanks for the tale.
Perseverance and preparation,we just see the top and think all was set on a plate for these legends.
Golden days of Indian cricketer.. now only thing left is the showbizz.😊
Thank you, thank you so much, me recollected everything. Dada great captain , great leader..🖤
That was a brilliant coverage . Loved it ! Need dada captaincy story please ...
Natural Leader Ganguly!!!!!❤❤❤
"engineered by GANGULY" 🙏
Man, you are a great story teller. You make these memories even better❣️
This series, where India's bowlers all got injured, doesn't it echo India's previous tour of australia? Where a net bowler natarajan, played Brisbane test. And rest is history.
Damn, I cried 😭
I feel you bro.
We LOVE Dada & KingSingh both. ❤❤❤
What an era !!!!
Tears come.. while watching your videos..
Such goodis your storytelling.
Never knew about NCA incident of bhajji, your commentary is honey to ears. Wonderful video
I would love if u made podcasts
Just listening to your soothing w
voice while knowing something more about cricket...
People might say Dhoni is the most successful captain but Dada has created the foundation of Indian cricket at a time when Indian cricket was in turmoil.. Dhoni was lucky to get a solid foundation and he surely utilised it to the full potential
Felt very emotional while hearing your words about sourav ganguly😔 thank you very much for this wonderful video❤❤❤
Man you have a great hand on research, kudos to the team's efforts 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
we want both the videos abt ganguly and sidhu ..pls bro make them
literally in tears..
thank you for such a heart warming presentation..
literally can't hold my tears now...

Hail Dada
Hail Bhajji
Harbhajan is a real fighter.
Bro This 2001 series is one of the highlights of Indian cricket and number of media groups try to cover the story in the past and I really enjoy their analysis. And the way you present the story it’s like I never heard about the 2001 series story. It’s like I just see the unseen part of Moon(you know What I mean),really really thank you and wish to see more stories of 2000s cricket era
Oh comeon dear again a very very fabulous content.... Now , you're proving ur potential. I'm glad to hear you yet again in this short period of time.... Lots of support from myside keep rocking..
And I would surely love if you narrate sourabh's story that you talked about also and that sidhhu's controversial thing.
Would have been a movie on dada, instead on dhoni,
Nothing against dhoni thou but real architect of modern Indian cricket is dada... 👍
Beautifully Narrated
Would Love to see you make a video on the storms that Ganguly faced in his captaincy! Much Love! ❤️

Plzz make a analysis vid on why RCB almost every seasons get allout on a score less than 100. Why only them even they have a good batting lineup.
Well done Sir Ganguli Sir. You make Harbachin family proud and Proud india Too Sir. You are always our hero. Hare Krishna Namaste 🙏👏👍🙏
that test looks so similar to ind tour aus 2020 21
•india getting humiliated in first test
•main bowling lineup injured
•vihari ash / dravid vvs saving the test
•youngsters taking charge being aggresive
•india winning historic test because of youngsters
we want more videos on Ganguly
He saved Indian cricket not just players - bhajji was just one of them.
the only badluck in Ganguly's era is Australia's strongest team where the other teams has very less probability to win the matches, otherwise he wouldve become greatest ever than luckiest Dhoni.
Sure do make a video on Dada's captaincy
Dada for bhajji.
No such story after that in indian cricket history😢
