Ganguly's swipe at Buchanan

Date: March 14, 2010



Trust the John Buchanan controversy to crop up on a day when Sourav Ganguly led KKR to an emphatic win on home turf today. After the Knights’ second win on the trot, skipper Ganguly spelt out that one of the key secrets behind the team’s rousing start to IPL-3 is the good atmosphere in the dressing room. “Atmosphere, staff, players — these are the factors behind our success this season. Atmosphere is a key thing if you want the players to do well. This game is about playing freely.

When there’s atmosphere, you have your players playing freely and the team eventually does well,” Ganguly said after the match. Although Ganguly didn’t take any names, his mention of good atmosphere being necessary for team’s performance could be seen as an indirect reminder of the troubled times the former Indian captain has had with coach John Buchanan in the last edition of IPL.
