“16+ years of international cricket and countless matches later… on this 51st bday, I sum up my learnings for you. They are now yours! Announcing “Sourav Ganguly Masterclass”, an app that has my first-ever online course on leadership," tweeted Ganguly on his Birthday.

The ex-Indian skipper's course is titled “Leading with Greatness by Sourav Ganguly” and it has various aspects that teache leadership skills. The star Indian cricketer had been the epitome behind changing the face of Indian cricket. His on-field aggression, and leading the team from the front truly developed the Indian team before MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli took over the baton.
