2) Sourav Ganguly, Age: 43
Sourav Ganguly joins Sehwag at the top of the order. The two have opened together in the past, famously posting a 196 run opening partnership against West Indies in 2002 and making it a left hand-right hand batting partnership at the top. Sourav Ganguly is a man who dons a number of hats these days including being honorary President of the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), co-owner of Indian Super League (ISL) team Atletico De Kolkata, member of the IPL governing council and a member of the 5 man BCCI working committee to look into the IPL match fixing issues.
Back in his day, Ganguly was known as the ‘god on the offside’ and was known for his great timing of the ball. He remains 8th on the list of the highest run getters in ODI history and was one of India’s greatest captains, largely responsible for a turnaround in Team India’s fortunes and change in attitude.
