Shame on you, Mr. Ganguly
On December 3rd, when three players made their debut, their India cap was given to them uncermoniously in the sponsors kit bag and left outside their hotel room. Just a month back, another Indian hopeful Virender Sehwag had been "presented" his India cap in front of the camera and the captain had noted "We should make this a formal process".
