Sourav Ganguly in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2008

Sourav Ganguly is the most successful captain in Indian cricket history. In Indian premier league 2008 he is the captain of Kolkata Knight Riders. Sourav Ganguly is from Kolkata and it is natural that he has been given the captaincy of Kolkata Knight Riders. His becoming the captain of Kolkata Knight Riders makes many people of Kolkata and West Bengal very happy and it will surely increase interest about the matches of Kolkata Knight Riders among the TV viewers in the Indian state of West Bengal. Shah Rukh Khan is the owner of Kolkata Knight Riders and Shah Rukh Khan has joined with Sourav Ganguly to make the team popular. There has been some good media promotion until now. However, Sourav Ganguly should forget the media promotion and in stead should focus on the match itself.

Shah Rukh Khan has got enough brands to sponsor and co-sponsor the club and Sourav Ganguly has got some good players at his proposal. So, Sourav Ganguly has to be his best and take Kolkata Knight Riders to the next level in Indian premier league.

I am a bit pessimistic about the prospect of Kolkata Knight Riders because Sourav Ganguly is not a very good player when it comes to Twenty20 cricket. In fact, Sourav Ganguly is not a very good player when it comes to Twenty20 cricket. In fact, Ganguly has very little experience of playing Twent20 cricket and he is now 35 and not a good fielder either. So, Ganguly will have to depend mostly on his batting in IPL 2008.
