Dada is 'Face of Shame' @ IPL 4

Sourav Ganguly fondly called as Dada is the key man behind turning the fate of Indian cricket towards aggression. The young energy and passion which we see in Indian team these days is the result of stimulus offered by this legendary cricketer. Retiring from the International Cricket two years ago, Sourav Ganguly prolonged his cricketing career only to play in the Indian Premier League. 

Unfortunately, not even a single franchise among the ten chanced to pick up Dada at least at the base price of $ 200,000 causing a rude jolt for this experienced cricketer to feel ashamed of staying in the auction race of IPL 4 which started today. Bengal Tiger Ganguly although had a chance that he may be picked up by a franchise later after the first round of auctions are over but this has been the biggest snub for one of India's greatest captains. This is a turn around for Dada from 'Hall of Fame' to 'Face of Shame.'
