Sourav Ganguly, the outgoing President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), said on Thursday that one cannot remain a cricket administrator forever.
“You cannot play forever. You cannot remain an administrator forever,” said Ganguly.
The former India captain recalled his journey as a cricket administrator and a player at an event organised by Bandhan Bank.
“I have been in administration for eight years, was president of CAB (Cricket Association of Bengal) for five years and was president of the Board for three years. All these have tenures and terms after which you have to leave,” said Ganguly.
Ganguly described his tenure as an administrator as a “great journey and a learning experience.”
“The challenge of being a player is completely different. You cannot compare both… it has been great fun seeing both sides of the coin,” he said.
