Former BCCI President Sourav Ganguly Says About Virat Kohli’s Captaincy: Previously, in 2021 Virat Kohli resigned as a captain from the T20I that follows India’s disappointing performance in T20I World Cup 2021.
Recalling Virat Kohli’s captaincy resignation, India legend Saurav Ganguly says that he wasn’t responsible for removing Virat Kohli from the captaincy. Kohli has announced his resignation as the India team captain before the start of the T20I World Cup 2021.
Then again Kohli has asked BCCI by claiming that he wants to continue as ODI and T20I World Cup skipper but BCCI never asked him to continue as a skipper.
When Kohli resigned, Saurav Ganguly the president of BCCI. At that time, many reports stated that Saurav had played a major part in the removal of Virat Kohli, but he says that he had no part in it.
Saurav Ganguly said to Dadagiri that,
“I didn’t remove Virat from captaincy. I have said this several times. He (Kohli) was not interested to lead in T20Is. So, after he made that decision, I told him, if you’re not interested in leading in T20Is, it’s better if you step down from entire white-ball cricket formats.
Let there be a white-ball captain and a red-ball captain.”

“I pushed Rohit Sharma a bit to take up the captaincy role….” – Saurav Ganguly
He added that rather than that, he pushed Rohit Sharma to be a captain, even though Rohit was not interested in the captaincy.
“I pushed Rohit Sharma a bit to take up the captaincy role because he wasn’t interested in leading in all three formats of the game. So, maybe I have a bit of contribution in that but no matter who is administrating, it’s the players who perform well on the field.
I was appointed as the President of BCCI to work for the betterment of Indian cricket, this is a small part of it.”
Notably, India won 10 consecutive games in the World Cup 2023, except the final match under Rohit’s captaincy. Also, India reached to semis in the T20I World Cup 2022.
