BCCI President Sourav Ganguly on Wednesday called Virat Kohli \u201cthe most important man in Indian cricket\u201d and promised the captain all possible support to make his life \u201ceasier and not difficult\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI will speak to him tomorrow. He is the most important man in Indian cricket as captain of India. I look it at that way. So we will have a word with him and as I said we will support him in every possible way, he wants to make this team the best in the world. It has been a great team to be honest with the way they have played in the last three to four years,\u201d said Ganguly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt will be a proper discussion and everything will be mutually discussed but be rest assured, we are here to make their life easier, not make their life difficult. Everything is on the basis of performance,\u201d the BCCI president was clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPerformance is the most important thing and will decide the future of Indian cricket. Virat is the most important man in the entire context. We will support him, we will listen to him. I have been a captain myself so I understand. Mutual respect will be there, opinions and discussions will be there and we will do what is best for the game.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After it became clear that Ganguly would be the next BCCI president, the former captain had spoken about India\u2019s inability to win the ICC events since the 2013 Champions Trophy. He spoke on the subject again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes you can say that they have not won a World Cup but you don\u2019t win a World Cup every time. Hopefully, we will support him, whatever he wants and we will make sure Indian cricket goes ahead smoothly.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ganguly brushed aside any need for split captaincy after rumours started doing rounds post World Cup that Rohit Sharma will be made the white-ball captain.\u201cI don\u2019t think this question arises. India is winning at the moment. They are probably the best team in the world,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
