This was Ganguly's comment on Tendulkar's absence from Indian cricket

According to Sourav Ganguly, the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Sachin Tendulkar is not currently associated with Indian cricket. Ganguly affirmed that Sachin should participate in Indian cricket somehow.

“Sachin is obviously different from the rest of us. For him, none of it matters. It can hardly be better news for Indian cricket with Sachin’s involvement. The way he handles this kind of thing is very unique, and he has his own way of handling things. The manner in which this problem should be solved obviously needs to be worked out,” stated Ganguly in a recent interview with Boria Majumdar.

According to Ganguly, Indian cricket is characterized by “too much” contention, which he finds unrealistic. Earlier Ganguly requested Kohli that he should not give up the T20I captain’s role. Meanwhile, Kohli said that he had never been asked not to step down from the T20I captaincy.

Ganguly’s former players have already made an impact on Indian cricket. VVS Laxman has been named head of the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru. Team India is coached by Rahul Dravid, and the NCA is led by VVS Laxman. As of now, Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag are the only two cricketers from Ganguly’s era who have not been involved in Indian cricket.
