Virat Kohli face-off with the board president is likely to end with the reaction of the board president on his home in Kolkata. Dada declines to make any statement to the media saying, the board will deal with it. Yesterday, before leaving for South Africa’s tour, Indian test skipper Virat Kohli had dropped a bombshell in his virtual press conference and contradicted the board president Saurav Ganguly publicly.
But, the board has decided not to react to the situation and deal with it with utmost care as it involves the two great players of all times as well as the office of the president of the BCCI. Board and their senior officials like Jay Shah, Saurav Ganguly and others had a virtual meeting on zoom wherein they have decided to refrain from making public statements or press releases. They will reconcile with the captain in the coming time. This is based on the trusted sources in the board, reports PTI.
The current discrepancy between Virat Kohli and the board president is talk of the town, fans are expecting BCCI’s reaction to it but South Africa’s series is about to start and the board won’t take any hasty call on the issue. Board can’t afford to distract the players before such an important tour better they will resolve it the closed doors among themselves.
The important goal is to save the prestige of the president’s office and not to hurt an important player and the captain of the test Virat Kohli. It’s a hot potato for the BCCI and the Indian cricket to handle.
