The god of off-side, Saurav Ganguly

Such was Sourav Ganguly's off-side stroke play that Rahul Dravid once said, "On the offside, first there is God, then there is Ganguly”. The left-hander was blessed with incredible timing that allowed him to pierce the off-side region nonchalantly.

Plus, he was severe against the left-arm spinners and deposited them in the midwicket stand after racing down the wicket.

He was at his best during the late 90s and early 2000s when he formed a highly successful opening partnership with Sachin Tendulkar. His form dipped in the later stages of his career and although he staged a successful comeback he couldn't bring back his old charm.
