The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) President-elect Sourav Ganguly was eager to spend time with the Indian team as they prepare hard to take on South Africa in the third and final Test in Ranchi from October 19. However, Ganguly had to cancel the plan as he will have to be present for the inauguration for the upcoming edition of the Indian Super League in Kerala on October 20.

Even though the Test is to be played from October 19 till October 23, Ganguly will be heading to Mumbai from Kochi as he will officially take over as the new BCCI chief at the board headquarter on October 23.

While Ganguly has stepped down from his position as mentor of Delhi Capitals, he is set to continue shooting for the reality show Dadagiri and will also be doing endorsements.

"I will continue doing only (Bengali TV show) Dadagiri and endorsements, rest all stopped. Commentary, article writing and IPL, I'll stop doing all this now. I've already quit Delhi Capitals and conveyed it to them. It's a huge responsibility and the first task would be to form various committees by calling Apex Council meeting," he pointed.

On his committee with ISL team ATK, Ganguly said that he hasn't spoken to them in recent times and will do so soon.
