In today's episode, we sit down with Sourav Ganguly, Former Captain of the Indian Cricket Team, Former President of BCCI, and President of the Cricket Association of Bengal, to understand leadership, team building, and what it truly takes to rebuild from the ground up.

We discuss how Ganguly took a broken, match-fixing-scarred Indian cricket team and turned them into a side that won in Australia, England, and Pakistan. He breaks down the aggression he brought to Indian cricket, the difference between a selector and a rejector, and why fearlessness is built daily not in a single speech. He also opens up about his father, his relationship with the game after captaincy, and what drives him even today.
