Sourav Ganguly to become Cricket Association of Bengal president again

New Delhi: Outgoing BCCI chief Sourav Ganguly will be back as the president of his state unit, the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), the former India captain said on Saturday.

Ganguly, who had to step down from the BCCI president’s post as there is no precedence of anyone continuing in the top job for more than three years, had been the CAB president for four years between 2015 to 2019 before coming to the BCCI.

“Yes, I will be contesting the CAB polls. I plan to file my nomination on 22 October. I have been in CAB for five years and as per Lodha Rules, I can continue for another four years,” Ganguly told PTI.

There was a strong buzz that Ganguly’s elder brother Snehasish would contest in place of Avishek Dalmiya for the top post, but the former India player’s nomination changes a lot of equations.

“I will finalise my panel on 20 October. Let’s see,” Ganguly said.
