Sourav Ganguly likes Virat Kohli’s ‘attitude’. But the head of the Indian board thinks that India’s Test captain Budd has a quarrel. These two people are at the center of the discussion right now.
According to a website called CricketTracker, at a function in Gurugram, Sourav was asked, “Which cricketer’s attitude is the best?” In reply, Sourav said, “I like Kohli’s ‘attitude’, but he fights badly.”
Board vs Kohli controversy is at its peak in Indian cricket at the moment. Kohli has said that the board has not objected to him without captaincy in T20 cricket. But Sourav said he himself had told Kohli not to relinquish the T20 captaincy.
Kohli held a press conference before leaving for South Africa. “The selectors called me 90 minutes before the Test team selection,” said Kohli, referring to his removal from the one-day cricket captaincy. Five selectors told me I was no longer the captain of the one-day team. In reply, I said, ‘OK.’ ‘But Sourav said he had talked to Kohli about it.
Answering the question, he replied, “I like Virat Kohli’s attitude but he fights a lot.”
He was also asked how he deals with all the stress in life. Ganguly came up with a rather sarcastic answer to this and reckoned, “There is no stress in life. Only wife and girlfriend give stress.”
However, Ganguly had earlier reckoned that he personally asked Kohli to not give up the role.
The cricketing fraternity was left all confused as the skipper’s statement contradicted what the BCCI chief had earlier stated.
According to a report in crictracker.com, Ganguly spoke on Kohli’s attitude on Saturday. In an event in Gurgaon, he was asked which player’s attitude he likes best.
