Sourav Ganguly selected IPL fantasy team, made himself captain, included Pant in place of Dhoni
IPL 2020: Mahendra Singh Dhoni is one of the most successful captains in the Indian Premier League. He has managed to win the title three times to his team Chennai Super Kings and has also led the team to the semi-finals several times. Due to his successful captaincy and his performance, he is still in his team and holds the captaincy. But the shocking thing is that Dhoni's name was not there when the Cricket Board of India (BCCI) President Sourav Ganguly announced the fantasy IPL XI during an event in Kolkata.
Sourav Ganguly appointed himself captain of his IPL fantasy team and chose Rishabh Pant as Mahendra Singh Dhoni as the wicketkeeper. Ganguly did not choose Dhoni and said on this, "I don't want any debate on this".

In bowling, he included Marcus Stoinis, Jofra Archer, and Jasprit Bumrah in the playing XI. Earlier, Sourav Ganguly praised all-rounder Jadeja. In the third and deciding ODI against the West Indies, Jadeja batted patiently to lead India to victory. On Sunday, he scored an unbeaten 39 and India were able to achieve the target of 316 runs given by the West Indies. Virat Kohli once again played a solid innings of 85 runs. After his dismissal, Shardul Thakur and Jadeja led India to victory. Ganguly said, "Ravindra Jadeja's batting is getting better."
