Well done, and well deserved. Ganguly has been a fine leader and has lead this Indian team into heights they have never seen nor experienced before. He truly has put the Indian Cricket Team on the map.

As for Rahul, his sheer dedication, commitment and versatility for Team India has been outstanding. As a temporary captain, classy and pivotal batsman and an always hardworking and dedicated wicketkeeper, Rahul has been an asset for India and we are very proud of his achievements throughout 2003.

Well done.

Congratulations to Ganguly.He is not my favourite bowler or batsman, But he is my favourite captain and I can just wish him good luck and more success in upcoming Pakistan series , and obviously Pakistan , Australia and South africa are not that far better than India if Ganguly is there in India .

Typical foreign attitude.
Can't give Ganguly credit for everything.
I continue to take great pleasure at the anticipation of Ganguly tearing the Australian bowling to shreds.
