Kolkata: There is some good news for Sourav Ganguly fans. According to highly placed sources from the broadcasters Sunset and Vine, the former Indian skipper is going to wield the microphone in the commentary box once again. Yes, you got it right! The Prince of Calcutta is all set to resume his career as a commentator after a break in the Champions Trophy set to be held in June in England. The last time Ganguly graced the commentary box was during the ICC Cricket World Cup held in Australia back in 2015. It will be almost after a gap of two years that Ganguly will be doing commentary.

The source from the broadcasters informs that Sunset and Vine, the global UK based production company, who has the rights for the world feed for ICC events has signed Ganguly to do commentary for the global event to be held in England. Given his immense popularity in UK and all around the globe, Sunset and Vine decided on roping in Ganguly. In fact the last time when India won the ICC Champions Trophy in England during 2013, Ganguly was in the commentary team. MS Dhoni and his team lifted the Champions Trophy defeating hosts England in the rain-curtailed final at Edgbaston in Birmingham.

Ganguly back as a commentator means, he will be sharing the box with another former Indian skipper Ravi Shastri with whom Ganguly had a spat after the committee comprising Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman preferred Anil Kumble as the Team India coach ignoring Shastri. Ganguly and Shastri have commentated before and fans will be relishing the prospect of seeing the two back together. And it would also be interesting to note how Shastri and Ganguly gel amidst the the tension between the two of them.

Now, what happens to Ganguly the administrator? Well, he will finish three years in the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), in July, which means as per the Lodha Committee recommendations, he needs to go for a cooling-off period which temporarily bids adieu to Ganguly, the administrator. Ganguly currently is the president of the CAB. He joined the CAB as a joint secretary in July 2014 and was appointed as the president in September, 2015 after the demise of Jagmohan Dalmiya.

With Ganguly making a comeback in the commentary box, viewers shall be greeted to some insightful cricketing analysis. We look forward to it. However all attempts to contact Ganguly came a cropper as he was not available for comments.
