Mumbai:Sourav Ganguly, the outgoing Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president wished Roger Binny good luck for being selected as the new BCCI President. The former India captain also stated that the new office bearers of BCCI will take the Indian Cricket governing council forward.
"I wish Roger (Binny) all the best. The new group will take this forward. BCCI is in great hands. Indian cricket is strong so I wish them all the luck," said Ganguly. Ganguly was earlier not considered for a second term as the BCCI President and was stripped of the post after a BCCI meeting at the Trident on October 11.
The former cricketer had earlier expressed his thoughts on his tenure as the BCCI President. "I was the president of the Cricket Association of Bengal for five years. I have been president of BCCI for years. After all these terms, you have to leave and go. As an administrator, you have to contribute a lot and make things better for the team. Me being a player, who was around for a long time, understood it. I enjoyed my time as an administrator thoroughly. You cannot play forever and you cannot remain in administration forever," said Ganguly at an event earlier.
