Sourav Ganguly is one of the legends of Indian cricket. While he was in his prime, he was called ‘god of off-side’ for his ability to play off-side shots perfectly. It was Ganguly under whose leadership India achieved that famous win against Australia after being asked to follow on.

These are some of the reasons why fans still love Ganguly. Also, he is the current president of the Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI) and is responsible for making important decisions related to Indian cricket.

So, when a player and administrator like Ganguly speaks, everyone listens, which happened during an event in Gurgaon. He made several comments regarding the current turmoil in Indian cricket. However, the answer he gave regarding how he deals with stress has caught the attention of netizens, and Ganguly has received a lot of backlash because of what he said.

“There is no stress in life. Only wife and girlfriend give stress,” Ganguly said jokingly during the event.

After his comment went viral, people started calling him out and termed him sexist for putting out such a ‘joke.’ Ganguly is regarded as one of the most successful captains in Indian cricket, and his fanbase contains people from all across the world.

Taking the current COVID-19 scenario into consideration, there is a cloud of uncertainty around the upcoming series between India and South Africa. Nevertheless, India will be allowed to leave South Africa, even if the borders do get closed if COVID-19 situation worsens.

CSA has assured the BCCI that if such a situation arises, then their permission required for their exception to leave shall be granted. As the threatening Omicron variant has led to a fourth wave of the virus in the rainbow nation, the series is all set to be played behind closed doors.

Despite all the precautions taken, if a situation arrives where the visitors wish to go home, then the South African government will allow them to go back .
