Sourav Ganguly Captain Quotations

For the last five-six months, I have been making runs in both domestic and Test cricket. I also scored runs as the captain in Zimbabwe, so I don't know whether I am playing better because I am no longer the Indian captain.

You're never too worried as a captain, when you know Rahul Dravid's still out there.

Dhoni is the best captain India ever had

Dhoni is one of the greatest captain I have ever seen

Whether people agree or not, a captain is under more pressure and that is the reason he is selected before everybody else and given time,

The captain has a big role. It is important to keep the boys' confidence high and to keep one's faith in them. I try to give my support to the youngsters because nobody comes in as a world beater. Okay, some rare cricketers score a century on debut, but that doesn't mean the rest are not good enough. We have to give them more opportunities, which was not there when I started out. Captaincy these days is more off the field than on the field.

But yes, it's a different phase. The responsibility is less because as a captain you have to do many other things. But it is the same for all other captains.
