Opening up on the remarks, Sourav Ganguly told local mediapersons on Thursday, "No statements, no press conference. We will deal with it appropriately, leave it to BCCI."
In Press Conference Kohli had said
"When I left the T20I captaincy, I had first approached BCCI & intimated them off my decision and laid down my point of view in front of them. I gave the reasons why I wanted to quit T20 captaincy & my view point was received very nicely. There was no offence, no hesitation & not for once was I told that ‘you should not leave T20 captaincy’,.
Earlier, Ganguly had told PTI in an interview that the board had requested Kohli to continue as the T20I skipper, but on stepping down from his role, the selectors removed him from ODI captaincy as well and Rohit Sharma was named the new white-ball captain.
"We had requested Virat Kohli not to step down as T20 captain but he didn't want to continue as captain," Sourav Ganguly had said. "So, the selectors felt that they cannot have two white-ball captains in two white-ball formats. That's too much of leadership."
