Kolkata (West Bengal) [India] March 21 (ANI): Former Indian cricketer and ex-BCCI president Sourav Ganguly spoke about IPLs competitive nature, saying it is too early to decide who are contenders for the title as all teams look balanced.
KKR and RCB are poised to commence the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the renowned Eden Gardens on March 22. Both teams have undergone a shift in leadership, with Ajinkya Rahane taking over KKR and Rajat Patidar leading RCB. RCB is determined to break its losing streak against KKR, having failed to win in its last four encounters with them.
“It is too early to say anything right now. The tournament is too long and competitive. All teams are balanced,” Ganguly told the media.
One of Team India’s most iconic captains, Ganguly participated in the Indian Premier League (IPL) from 2008 to 2012, playing for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and subsequently Pune Warriors India (PWI) accumulating a total of 1,349 runs with seven half-centuries in 59 matches.
