Sourav Ganguly told India Today, "He has got all the potential to be right up there (with Kapil & Kumble). Incidentally that was the time Virat Kohli took over the reins of Indian Test cricket from MS Dhoni. "I hope for the sake of Indian cricket that Ashwin can go out and contribute the way Kapil Dev has. Then you are looking at a very bright future for Indian cricket because Kapil Dev has been legendary.
