Former Indian skipper, Sourav Ganguly turned back the clock as he brought back a lot of memories from his playing days as he decided to ake bat in his hands to play some stroke during the middle of Delhi Capitals (DC) practice at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi on Thursday. Despite the fact that the former Indian skipper isn’t as fit as he used to be. But his signature cuts and drives were loved by the fans after Delhi Capitals posted the video on their official social media accounts.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise from the national capital, captioned the video as, “So…@SGanguly99 decided to turn back the clock, RT if the 90s kid in you still cherishes those drives and cuts”.
