After nearly a decade, the former captain of India Sourav Ganguly and John Wright were seen together once again. But this time it was in the commentary box during India vs Bangladesh CWC 2019 warm-up game. The two enjoyed a funny banter as they went down the memory lane and reminisced about the moments when India lost to Australia early in the World Cup 2019 but managed to recover well. Ā Wright and Ganguly also had a discussion about their roles as a captain and coach in the Indian dressing room. The banter obviously tickled the funny bone of the netizens and they were thoroughly entertained by the same. IND beat BAN by 95 runs.
Hereās what Wright had to say. āWhen I was captain, John Wright was making all the decisions and I followed like an obedient student," The reunion has surely entertained this netizen. Ganguly said. Wright was quick to reply: "My memory must have failed then because I think you were in charge and I used to just potter around in the background." Check out a few reactions of the netizens which obviously signify that they have thoroughly enjoyed the banter.

This Ganguly - John Wright duo in commentary box makes me feel nostalgic. Hopefully they'll have lots more stories to share about 2003 world cup campaign. #INDvBAN
