'Politicisation Of Cricket, Distressing': Sports Journalist
Mamata Banerjee today said Sourav Ganguly "has been deprived" of his post as Indian cricket board chairman and appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to "compensate him" by sending him to the ICC (International Cricket Council). Sourav Ganguly had been "unfairly left out", the Bengal Chief Minister said, calling it "bad and sad". Former BBC sports editor Mihir Bose says the Prime Minister should have no role to play in who should be the chief as that would give a wrong image to the world.
