Ganguly's bat sounds better than his chin
- Sidharth Monga

Sunday morning at the Gabba, Sourav Ganguly was a man who had won himself, who had overcome his self doubts, who had got himself out of his own way.

When he swept MacGill just wide of the fine leg, Ganguly ran very hard to convert what was nothing more than an easy one by his and Laxman’s standards, into a couple to get to his hundred. He leapt twice in elation, almost tripped over, pumped the air, had arms aloft and without uttering a word told every Australian that he enjoyed the ‘sweet chin music’.
