Ganguly will not play Kanpur ODI: BCCI
April 14, 2005 17:14 IST
India's banned cricket captain Sourav Ganguly will not be part of the Indian squad for Friday's One-day International in Kanpur even though the ICC permitted him to play pending an appeal against the suspension, Board of Control for Cricket in India secretary S K Nair said on Thursday. Also read: Readers respond "There will be no change in the team already selected, with Rahul Dravid as captain, for the Kanpur ODI as there is less than 24 hours for the match to start," Nair said in a statement from Thiruvananthapuram. "Since less than 24 hours remains for the start of the Kanpur match, the Board felt that it was extremely important for the players to concentrate and focus on the match, so that they could bring out the best performance. In view of this, the Board has decided to continue with the selected team for the Kanpur match," the statement added. Nair said the position has been explained to Ganguly and he appreciated the Board's decision.
