Ganguly rules out retirement from competitive cricket

Kolkata, February 08: Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly today ruled out retiring from competitive cricket and said he was still hoping to play in the Indian Premier League if an opportunity came his way in the future.

A day after speculation about his retirement from all forms of cricket did the rounds, he said it was a classic case of misunderstanding and he was “shocked and disappointed” to see how his comments were misinterpreted by the media.

“After learning that something was misunderstood during the interview, I had sent a rejoinder and said if I don’t get to play IPL, I will not be participating in any forms of domestic cricket. But if I do get an opportunity to play IPL, I will play domestic cricket to stay fit,” Ganguly told PTI in an interview here.
