'Trouble In England': When A Girl Saved Sourav Ganguly's Life Who Was Held At Gunpoint

By Sahil Mathur May 25, 2021 • 12:16 PM View: 2701

Former Indian captain and current BCCI president, Sourav Ganguly is widely regarded as one of the 'fearless' players to have played the game. His 'on your face' attitude is a precedent that is being followed by Indian cricket even now. However, there was a moment in life where even Ganguly had shivers down his spine.

In Ian Botham's Beefy Cricket Tales, Sourav Ganguly revealed an incident during India's tour to England in 1996 where he and Navjot Singh Sidhu got into an argument with a few drunk teenagers.
