Sourav Ganguly's standards are uniquely his own, be it batting or fitness, success or failure, writes Sharda Ugra in the India Today.
As he did with his leadership, Ganguly has set the tone among his peers. The most incendiary of Indians has admitted that the fires have gone conclusively cold. Cricket at 30-something is a struggle in which a player's peak mental awareness must manage the slow erosion of physical skills. Every day is a tussle between the will and the inexorable passage of time and it is not ever a fair contest.
