One of the iconic moments of Indian cricket arrived in the year 2002, when ‘Dada’ took off his jersey on the Lord’s balcony after India came back from the dead to beat England in the Natwest Trophy final. He then led India to the final of the 2003 ODI World Cup, where India lost to Australia.

However, he made a famous comeback to the side and played his last Test in 2008, after which he retired from international cricket as the most successful India captain at that time.
Ganguly went on to play the Indian Premier League till 2012.
He featured in 113 Tests and 311 ODIs for India, scoring 18,575 runs in international cricket.
Ganguly went on the become a cricket administrator, first heading the Cricket Association of Bengal and then going on to become the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
