Birthday wishes to Sourav Ganguly and his view about Anil Kumble as bowling coach

Date:

India’s lucky cricket captain and the bengal tiger  Sourav Ganguly turns 44 on Friday. Ahead of his birthday dada talks about Anil Kumble and his bowling coach role.

Virat Kohli-led team has reached the Caribbean where India will square off against West Indies in a four-match Test series, which starts on July 21. This is Anil Kumble’s first assignment after being appointed as boss of the team.

However, India have decided to take Sanjay Bangar and Abhay Sharma as batting and fielding coach for the tour, respectively. The players met the new coch in Bangalore.

Overall the practice session was cool as Kumble  spent a good amount of time with the bowlers, also on individual basis, which sent strong signals that he is more than capable of taking responsibility as the bowling coach.

However, Sourav Ganguly said that it is Kumble’s prerogative not to take a bowling coach, but feels someone can be roped in later. There have been a number of former India bowlers, who were thought to be favourites including Zaheer Khan. He was also quoted saying,

“It is Anil’s prerogative. Since he is a bowler, maybe, he did not appoint a bowling coach. I also have read in the newspapers that he may rope in pace bowling coach later. Let me stress that Sachin and Laxman have no role in appointing Anil’s assistant coaches,” Ganguly told mid-day in an interview.

“I have no knowledge about this (Zaheer). BCCI will have to see whether Zaheer is available for 365 days or not.”

Later the prince of Kolkata denied to comment on the cold war between him and the land job’s favorite Ravi shastri on Kumble being the coach. He was reluctant to speak about the dig of former director of cricket committee at him for not being available for the interview as well.

NewsMobile wishes Sourav Ganguly , A very Happy Birthday….!
