There is always a lot riding on Sourav Ganguly since the time he became captain of the Indian team, and the newly-elected Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) President on Saturday said he is someone who creates his own expectations and is never governed by others.
As BCCI chief, Ganguly paved the way for India to play its first-ever Day Night Test at Eden Gardens against Bangladesh from November 22-26, in less than a week since taking over the hot seat.
At the launch of former international umpire Simon Taufel’s book titled “Finding The Gaps”, Ganguly said his biggest asset is his patience and those are things he picked up while playing.
“What helps me is I am a very patient person. These are characteristics which I have learnt in my playing career. I could adjust with everything and get the best out of it. One thing also I have learnt in life is to create my own expectations. My life is not ruled by somebody else’s expectations,” Ganguly said.
