Ganguly showers praise on Gambhir

Gambhir completed his 3000 runs in One-day cricket on Thursday en route to his unbeaten 150 in the fourth match, which helped India seal the five-match series.

“Gambhir has been improving a lot. Gambhir is a cool headed guy. He has been scoring runs and he is getting them consistently,” Ganguly said.

Watching the India-Sri Lanka day night proceedings with wife Dona and daughter Sana from at Eden Gardens, for Ganguly it was for the first time after his international retirement that India played at his home venue.

Asked whether he missed the on-field action, Ganguly said, “Not at all. I am enjoying my life.”
