Ganguly too had been catapulted to the top position in the Sahara Pune Warrior’s squad since Yuvraj Singh has been ruled out of the equation with cancer .Ganguly has got a pretty good job at his hands and all depends on how well he would be able to make the players gel together. With enough options to field a standard eleven, he would be hoping for a victory to begin with when the Sahara Pune warriors meet Mumbai Indians on April 6 2012 in their first encounter.
Can Gangulys Pune Warriors win that match over Sachin Tendulkars Mumbai Indians? That seems to be the question in the minds of everyone.
