As per news agency PTI, BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has tested negative for Coronavirus (Covid-19).
The Board Of Control For Cricket In India (BCCI) President and former India captain Sourav Ganguly has tested negative for the deadly coronavirus, days after his elder brother Snehasish Ganguly tested positive for the contagious disease.
"He (Ganguly) is living with his ailing mother and family, so as a precautionary measure he took the test voluntarily and the report came negative on Friday evening," a source close to the BCCI president told PTI.
In order to safeguard himself from the lethal virus, Ganguly went into home quarantine as part of the standard procedure after Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) secretary Snehasish tested positive for Covid-19.
