Saurav Ganguly confident of Eden Gardens hosting the IPL final:
The former India captain and BCCI president, Ganguly, has spoken to the media, saying it is not easy to move the final and that there is a great working relationship between CAB and BCCI to sort things out.
"No, no, we’re trying and talking to the BCCI. Is it that easy to shift the final? It’s Eden’s playoffs, and I’m sure everything will be sorted. I’m very hopeful," Ganguly was quoted by the Press Trust of India.
"Protest doesn’t help much. BCCI has a very good relationship with the Cricket Association of Bengal," added Ganguly.
Kolkata's weather during the playoff dates has been a cause of concern for the IPL governing council, and the CAB has done everything in their power by sending them the Indian Meteorological Department's data to claim good weather.
