‘He didn’t speak to me for three months’: Sourav Ganguly reveals fallout with VVS Laxman, shares details

Sourav Ganguly revealed VVS Laxman's disappointment after being excluded from India's 2003 World Cup squad, leading to a three-month silence between them. Ganguly admitted the decision, favouring Dinesh Mongia, caused a rift, despite Laxman's ODI record. Although controversial, Laxman returned post-World Cup, proving his value in subsequent series, and Ganguly emphasized the decision wasn't personal, as India reached the final.
