'Have to face rejection': Sourav Ganguly breaks his silence on BCCI exit

BCCI's outgoing president Sourav Ganguly has finally broke his silence on the entire issue surrounding his exit.

He philosophically remarked "that all have to face rejections" eventually.

"No one can continue as the administrator throughout his life. All have to face rejections some time or the other. When you look at quick success it never happens. Remember, one does not become Narendra Modi or Sachin Teldulkar or an Ambani overnight," he said after attending a function of Bandhan Bank here on Thursday.

Ganguly said that he enjoyed his term as the BCCI President thoroughly, and cited the accomplishments.

"However, my life as a cricketer was much more difficult. If you see there had been several developments in Indian cricket during the last three years when I was the BCCI President. We organised cricket during an extremely difficult period of COVID-19 pandemic. The Indian women's cricket team won the silver medal in the Commonwealth Games. The Indian men's cricket team had several successes overseas. Still as I said one cannot continue as the administrator throughout his life," he said.

Roger Binny is set to replace Sourav Ganguly on October 18.

Ganguly may give away his seat but his contribution to Indian cricket both as a player and administrator will remain evergreen.
