Happy Birthday Dada: Fans turn nostalgic over Sachin Tendulkar's birthday post for Sourav Ganguly

Former Team India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar wished Sourav Ganguly on his 48th birthday on Wednesday (July 8) with an adorable post.

Currently, Ganguly serves as the 39th president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the national governing body for cricket in India. Before being elected to the post, he served as the President of the Cricket Association of Bengal, the governing body of cricket in West Bengal.

Ganguly, nicknamed the 'God of the Off Side', is regarded as one of the greatest captains in world cricket who established himself as a remarkable prolific batsman on the offside, executing elegant stroke play square of the wicket and through the covers.

Sachin took to Twitter and said how he wishes their 'off-field partnership' continues to be strong like it once was on-field.

"Happy birhday Dadi! Hope our off-field partnership keeps going strong like our on-field ones. Wish you a blessed year ahead," Sachin Tweeted.

There is no bigger polariser in Indian cricket than Sourav Ganguly. His fans may consider him the 'Royal Bengal Tiger' who changed the face of Indian cricket, but there is no dearth of his detractors. He is often criticised for being a selfish batsman. Some have called him uncourteous, stubborn, and arrogant as well. He was surely not the most athletic of players Indians have produced. 

However, love him or hate him, you can't imagine Indian cricket without him.
