‘Probably the toughest day of my career'

Hyderabad: Sourav Ganguly, who announced his return to the Indian Premier League with a gutsy unbeaten 32 in Pune Warriors' win over Deccan Chargers on Tuesday, said it was the toughest day of his career and he came into the match with zero-confidence.

The former India captain was the cynosure of all eyes as he scored a plucky run-a-ball 32 not out laced with a 6 and three 4s to help Warriors beat Chargers by six wickets at Rajiv Gandhi stadium at Uppal here.

“I said it's probably the toughest day of my career. I have not picked a cricket bat for five months. I came into this game with zero-confidence,” said Ganguly after the match.

Ganguly carried forward the good work done by the openers Jesse Ryder (35) and Manish Pandey (49) as the veteran left-hander helped the Warriors chase down the modest target of 137 runs with 10 balls to spare by holding one end as three wickets fell on the other side.— PTI
