Former Indian cricket team captain, Sourav Ganguly, turned 43 on Wednesday. He was one of the finest captains of his era and did a remarkable job as a captain of India.
Ganguly was acknowledged as the ‘god of off-side’ for his prowess with the bat in playing exquisite strokes on the off-side. Along with records, Ganguly also carried quite a few controversies which made his cricketing journey more interesting.
He is affectionately known as Dada (means elder brother) and is currently in the advisory committee of Board of Control for Cricket in India. On his 43rd birthday, the social media is pouring with Dada’s birthday wishes and is one of the top current trends of the day. The cricket fraternity reacted on this auspicious occasion through Twitter.
