Sourav Ganguly And Nasser Hussain Engage In A Hilarious Banter On Twitter

Sourav Ganguly, former Indian captain and the current BCCI President, engaged in a hilarious banter with former England coach Nasser Hussain on Twitter on Saturday.

20th June happens to be the 24th anniversary of Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid making their Test debut for India. And, to celebrate the grandiose occasion, Ganguly, who scored a brilliant 131 in his maiden innings at the Mecca of Cricket, Lord’s, took to his Twitter account to post some of his pictures of that historic day.

“Made my debut today .. life’s best moment,” tweeted Sourav Ganguly.

Nasser Hussain, who was Ganguly’s maiden Test wicket was quick to reply –

“No pictures of you bowling that week,” reacted Hussain.

No pictures of you bowling that week .. ?

Ganguly and Nasser Hussain finally called it a day after wishing each other good health. Mohammad Kaif, however, joined the bandwagon, reminding Hussain of his famous ‘bus conductor’ jibe at the right-hander ahead of the Natwest Final.

‘Hi Nasser Hussain, I think you called someone a ‘bus driver.’ And in the end we all saw Dada’s 8-pack abs at the Lord’s balcony,” tweeted Kaif.
