Cricket crusader

Guess who's jumped up in dada's defence, rooting for a co meback for ex-cricket captain Sourav Ganguly? Rohit Roy, tellydom's 'angry young man' has taken upon himself the responsibility to sensitise his colleagues over Ganguly's unfair ouster because he feels, "nobody is doing anything concrete about it. There are many who feel what's happening is unfair, but somebody should do something about it." "Sourav has been universally acclaimed as the most successful Indian cricket captain ever, so if you want to keep him out of the game, then he deserves a golden handshake, not a brass and silver farewell. Moreover, it's not just him, who has had a performance problem. Both Sachin and Sehwag are not performing, and even Yuvraj has per formed well only once recently." But isn't all the banter a trifle late in the day?

"Not exactly, considering the doubts about Sachin's performance and the deferential treatment with which his case is being considered. That apart, it is never too late as Sourav's case is still in a state of limbo. If you want to rest him, then at least give him decent exit, why mislead by giving vague reasons like he's injured and the like," says Rohit. Now we know what keeps Rohit going, when he is not so busy with his professional commitments, especially with his telly starrer Sarrkarr – Rishton Ki Ankahi Kahani going off the air soon.

Roy, however has a stellar role in the Chopras' magnum opus Virasat to look for ward to, come April.
