Sourav Ganguly has been the ultimate comeback man of Indian cricket. His critics might call him cold, vindictive and lazy but the man has stood like a rock whenever crisis has come calling.
He has seen it all in a career spanning nine years stretching 82 Tests and 271 ODIs. Ganguly's inner strength has always been apparent.
In the county match against Kent he had told coach John Embury to expect big runs after scoring 69 in the first innings. He had a look at his shots on tape and was determined to play a big knock. His 125 ball innings studded with 15 boundaries and five sixes settled the issue.
It's this attitude which has made him captain of India and the only reason why Ganguly is India's most successful captain.
