- However, if he does, Ganguly can be BCCI’s representative to the ICC.
- As per an Indian Express report, Shah has already received support from 15 state associations.
- Shah is touted to be the main man for BCCI pocketing over Rs 48,000 crore from IPL Media Rights.
- Ganguly with his health struggles has been in the shadows more often.
