Ganguly Out

Cape Town: It seems that Kolkata Knight Riders coach John Buchanan had his own way in the scheme of things as reports in a news channel claim that Sourav Ganguly has been slashed off the captaincy of the IPL team and the responsibility has been shouldered to Brendon McCullum instead.

Reports claim that the changes will be only for the first match of KRR, that is, on 19th April against Deccan Chargers.

A lot of controversy had been created earlier regarding John Buchanan’s ‘multiple-captains theory’ wherein he proposed to have different captains for the different aspects of the game, i.e. – batting, bowling, fielding and the toss as well.

The concept seemed more of conspiracy to remove Ganguly from the captaincy of KKR than to bring about some changes for the betterment of the team.

However, later, team owner Shah Rukh Khan dismissed the possibility of having multiple captains and said that “Dada will always remain our (KKR’s) main man”.

The reports have indeed come as a major jolt for Ganguly, but for McCullum, it must be a chance of a lifetime.

McCullum has had a spectacular IPL first season. He hit a belligerent 73-ball-158 against Team Bangalore in the IPL opener last season, and became the first player to score a century in the league.
