‘Kohli ne agar sau maara to galaa Ganguly ka sukhega’ – Fans react as Sourav Ganguly gets named in Hindi commentary team for WTC final
Sourav Ganguly last commentated during the ODI World Cup 2019 in England.
Former India skipper Sourav Ganguly has been named in the Hindi Commentary team for the upcoming Test Championship final. He has returned to the commentary box after the 2019 World Cup. A few months after the tournament, Ganguly had to step away from the job as he was elected as the Indian Cricket Board president. Apart from letting go of the commentary job, he also stepped away from Delhi Capitals’ job.
Last year, ahead of the 20-20 World Cup, the former India skipper was sacked from the job. During the IPL 2023, the left-hander returned as the team director of the Capitals. Now, the ‘Prince of Kolkata’ will now return to the commentary job. Alongside Sourav, the likes of Harbhajan Singh, Deep Dasgupta, and S Sreesanth will do the job.
