Legend Sourav Ganguly grabbed headlines after he was unanimously elected to head the Board of Control for Cricket in India as its President.
The move has drawn praise from the entire Indian cricketing fraternity, and many believe that it should have happened sooner.
Meanwhile, ex-Indian swash-buckling batsman Yuvraj Singh cheekily said that he wished Dada was the Chief when Yo-Yo test was in demand.

It was last month when Yuvi had made a bold claim that he was dropped from the Indian team despite clearing the Yo-Yo Test. Notably, he was asked to play domestic cricket.
"Suddenly, I had to go back and prepare for the Yo-Yo test at the age of 36. Even after I cleared the test, I was told to play domestic cricket," he said.

"They actually thought that I wouldn't be able to clear the test due to my age. And that it would be easy to decline me afterwards...yeah you can say it was an exercise in making excuses," Yuvi had said last month.
