'Wish You Were BCCI President While Yo-Yo Test Was In Demand', Yuvraj to Ganguly

Former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh has congratulated Sourav Ganguly on his election as the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). At the same time, the former all-rounder cracked a joke that it would have been good for him if Ganguly were to be the BCCI president when the Yo-Yo test was in demand. “Greater the man greatest the journey! From IndianCaptain to @BCCI president. Think it will b a gr8 insight 4 a cricketer to be an administrator & make others understand admin from a player's point of view Wish u were d president while d yoyo was in demand, good luck dadi @SGanguly99,” Yuvraj tweeted.

As Ganguly is witty enough to handle such jokes from his former teammate, the former skipper thanked Yuvraj with a heart-winning reply. Ganguly said, “Thank u the best .. u have won India world cups .. time to do good things for the game now .. u r my superstar .. god bless always.”

Yuvraj made this tweet referring to the manner in which he was not selected into the Indian lineup. Ganguly will take charge as BCCI President on October 23. He will be able to serve the office till September 2020, as he has also been holding posts in the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) for the past five years where he currently serves as the president. An administrator can only serve six years on the trot.
