Virat Kohli Is A Champion Player: Sourav Ganguly

Mumbai: Former Indian captain and  BCCI new president Saurav Ganguly praised the current skipper Virat Kohli calling him a ‘champion player’.

“India is a good team. They are playing well. Yes, I know they have not won a big tournament, but they have played well in big tournaments except the semi-finals and finals. So, hopefully, Virat can change that, he is a  champion player, “Ganguly told reporters.

Ganguly, who is set to become the chairman of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), said he would focus on first-class cricket as it is the basis of Indian cricket.

“My biggest priority is first-class cricketers. We will change their lives because it is the most important thing. They are the basis of Indian cricket. We only look at the top but we have to look down and we will change.” This, he said.

Ganguly also said that he has a very young team and will work to the best of his ability.

“First of all, I think the thing that makes me happy is that I get an opportunity when I have a difficult situation, which gives me a lot of confidence and makes me feel that they have to be on me and my ability. Trust. So, that’s what it is and I will work to the best of what I know,” said Ganguly.

“I’ve got a very small team with Jai (Shah), Arun (Dhumal) and Jayesh (George). J and I are the most experienced. We will do it to the best of our ability. How we will do – I don’t know, but efforts. There will be no shortage, ”Ganguly said.
