Sourav Ganguly is a former International Indian cricket player and also one of the most influential players in the history of Indian cricketing. He has a record of the highest score that is 183 by any Indian in the ICC cricket world cups so far.
He was born on 8 July, 1972, in Kolkata (then Calcutta). His father’s name was Chandidas Ganguly and his mother’s name, Nirupa Ganguly. He was born into a rich family and had a luxurious life. His father ran a flourishing print business. That time cricket was not the famous sport in West Bengal because football took precedence those days. Sourav Ganguly was interested in football also but his parents want him to study and did not want him to opt for any sport. But his elder brother Snehashish Ganguly, was a stable cricketer for Bengal and so he helped Sourav Ganguly to build his career in cricket. He took admission in a cricket academy where his batting talent was identified. He grew up and learned sport with his brother and also the tricks of the trade. Gradually, he rose through the ranks, and after scoring a century for Orissa Under-15, he became the captain of the St. Xavier School’s cricket team. In 1989, Sourav Ganguly was selected to play for the Bengal team. Coincidentally, his brother dropped from the side that year. After an impressive show in the Ranji Trophy in the 1990-91 season, the lefthander came into the limelight.
