When the Senior -Junior debate in full swing in Indian cricket
, there is a new turn in definition of -Youth, given none
other but Indian chambers of commerce when former Indian cricket
captain Sourav Ganguly was conferred very recently the Outstanding
Young Achievers Award for his contribution to Indian cricket The
award, instituted by the Young Leaders forum of the premier
business body Indian Chamber of Commerce, was handed over
to Ganguly at a glittering programme held in the midst of a large
number of business honchos, film personalities and eminent
persons.
Definitely the award is a sweet surprise for Sourav specially
when current ODI captain Dhoni is backing his young brigade.
The new , rejuvenated ,'Young' Sourav Ganguly might enforce
Selectors turn their head for Sourav to add one more name to the
'young' one day brigade.
Sourav, in his acceptance speech after receiving
the award, could not hide his astonishment.
"I thank the Indian Chamber of Commerce for
putting the word 'young' before the award. I will probably wake up
feeling better tomorrow, at a time when there is a debate in the
country between youth and experience," he said in a lighter
vein.
