Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) has planned to present Sourav Ganguly with a golden bat when the former India captain is felicitated at the Eden Gardens on January 18.
To make it a grand occasion, CAB has also put aside its bitterness with Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) officials by inviting all of them to the function. CAB joint-secretary Arun Mitra said"All the former and present Ranji cricketers from Bengal and BCCI officials have been invited.We have also invited all the past and present U-16, U-19 and U-22 Bengal players. Women cricketers and former CAB office bearers will also be invited."
"The one-hour function beginning at 6 pm would be an appreciation for Sourav's contribution to Indian and Bengal cricket for over a decade-and-half along with his glittering international career."
"A docufeature on India's former captain would also be screened on Eden's giant screen to make it a memorable event. He will also deliver a speech for the occasion," he said.
