Expulsion of Indian legend from team, profit made by blackmail; He scored a double century as soon as he returned to the field
Sourav Ganguly is known as the best cricketer and captain not only in the country but also in the whole world. He has also been the former president of BCCI. Also, stories of his bravery are not few. He is especially famous for his bravery in cricket. In fact, the year 2006 saw the biggest mess of ‘Dada’ i.e. Ganguly’s career. At that time he was kept out of the team. It was none other than his coach who made him sit out. This is a well-known story, but did you know that Dada’s way back was through that one advertisement, while blackmail was done by him.
Career took a turn due to ‘threat’
The ad was for a soft drink company, with the opening line, Don’t forget your ‘Dada’? At this time this company was also in trouble and ‘Dada’ was also in trouble. The ad was planned by the company’s think tank to get out of trouble. However, Ganguly initially refused after hearing this advertisement, but later he remembered that his contract with the company was till 2007. In such cases, Dada will not be able to release them unless their image is damaged by the content of the ad. It also contained some binding rules that legal recourse would be taken if they withdrew from it. Ganguly finally agreed as he didn’t want to go through another hassle at that moment.
A bold entry in the second innings
The ad was shot and hit the market immediately. In a way, it was an advertisement that created excitement in the minds of people. Everywhere people were talking about the same thing. People’s feelings had started to match with Ganguly. Finally Dada returned to the team. After this, Ganguly (Sourav Ganguly) started the second innings on the field with such a bang that even those who dropped him from the team started to wonder.
‘Dada”s hand in the World Cup too
‘Dada’ played in the 2007 world cup (world cup 2007). The Indian team may have exited at the group stage, but Ganguly was one of the top run-scorers for the team. After this comeback, Ganguly scored the first and only double century of his Test career, that too against Pakistan.
