<P> Following a prolific Ranji season in 1990 -- 91 , Ganguly scored three runs in his One Day International ( ODI ) debut for India against the West Indies in 1992 . He was dropped immediately since he was perceived to be `` arrogant '' and his attitude towards the game was openly questioned . It was rumoured that Ganguly refused to carry drinks for his teammates , commenting that it was not his job to do so , later denied by him . Consequently , he was removed from the team . He toiled away in domestic cricket , scoring heavily in the 1993 -- 94 and 1994 -- 95 Ranji seasons . Following an innings of 171 in the 1995 -- 96 Duleep Trophy , he was recalled to the National team for a tour of England in 1996 , in the middle of intense media scrutiny . He played in a single ODI , but was omitted from the team for the first Test . However , after teammate Navjot Singh Sidhu left the touring , citing ill - treatment by then captain Mohammad Azharuddin , Ganguly made his Test debut against England in the Second Test of a three - match series at Lord 's Cricket Ground alongside Rahul Dravid . England had won the First Test of the three - match series ; however , Ganguly scored a century , becoming only the third cricketer to achieve such a feat on debut at Lord 's , after Harry Graham and John Hampshire . Andrew Strauss and Matt Prior have since accomplished this feat , but Ganguly 's 131 still remains the highest by any batsman on his debut at the ground . India was not required to bat in the second innings due to the match ending in a draw . In the next Test match at Trent Bridge he made 136 , thus becoming only the third batsman to make a century in each of his first two innings ( after Lawrence Rowe and Alvin Kallicharran ) . He shared a 255 run stand with Sachin Tendulkar , which became at that time the highest partnership for India against any country for any wicket outside India . The Test again ended in a draw , handing England a 1 -- 0 series victory ; Ganguly scored 48 in the second innings . </P>
