It has been 15 years since Sourav Ganguly became the first Indian cricketer to score a century at Lord's on debut. In the Times of India Sumit Mukherjee gets Ganguly to look back on that knock.
When did he start thinking about the milestone? “Century was the last thing on my mind when I went in to bat. I was playing for the moment. I knew I had to score runs to keep my place in the next Test. Getting to my century was indeed a great feeling,” recalls Sourav, who cracked another century at Trent Bridge in the final Test.
