A day after Virat Kohli was removed as the ODI captain, Sourav Ganguly had said that he had indeed spoken to Virat regarding the leadership change adding, that he had requested Virat to also not give up the T20I captaincy.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Sourav Ganguly chose to distance himself from the raging controversy involving the sacking of Virat Kohli as the ODI captain. Kohli on Wednesday (December 15) revealed in a press conference that BCCI and its members didn’t have any conversation with him regarding the change of guard in Indian ODI team.
The BCCI president Ganguly said ‘no comments’ in Kolkata when asked about the Kohli controversy. “No comments, BCCI is dealing with it. I said no comments and will not say anything at this point in time,” an adamant Ganguly said on Thursday (December 16).
When Rohit Sharma was appointed as India`s white-ball captain last week, one anticipated the growing animosity within the cricketing circles, but no one could have thought that a leadership change would bring two of the biggest fractions – Kohli and Ganguly at loggerheads.
