What Ganguly wants from Captain Kohli, returned to Kolkata and told
Ganguly, who arrived in Kolkata after filing his nomination in Mumbai, spoke to reporters at the Eden Gardens Stadium.
Former India captain Sourav Ganguly, who is set to take over as BCCI president, said on Tuesday that he wants the Indian team management to focus on winning big ICC events in the coming times. Ganguly said that he wants captain Virat Kohli to think seriously in this direction.
Ganguly, who arrived in Kolkata after filing his nomination in Mumbai, told reporters at the Eden Gardens Stadium here, ‘We have to concentrate now on winning big tournaments. I know that these people cannot win every tournament, but it is also true that these people have also suffered in many tournaments.
Ganguly agreed – today’s team is much better than the team of his time
Sourav Ganguly said that today’s team is much better than the team of his time because with time the team has become mentally powerful. “There is no dearth of talent at this time,” said the CAB chief. We reached the World Cup semi-finals, but could not reach the title. Virat will have to think seriously in this direction. And this work cannot be done in the boardroom.
India won their last ICC tournament in 2013 under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Then India won the 50-over Champions Trophy title in England. Under Kohli’s captaincy, India reached the semi-finals of the ICC World Cup held in England this year and lost.
