The Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has congratulated the former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly for being elected as the new BCCI president.
Yuvraj appreciated Ganguly’s appointment as the BCCI chief with a cheeky tweet. He tweeted that Ganguly would understand administration from the player’s point of view. He also jokingly mentioned in the tweet that it would have been good if Dada had been the president of BCCI when “Yo Yo” test was in demand.
Yuvraj, when he had got injured on the West Indies tour in 2017, was asked by the team management to pass the Yo-Yo test after his recovery and he said in an interview recently that even though he passed the Yo-Yo test, the management didn’t get him back into the national team. He was asked to play domestic cricket after that.
Here is Yuvraj’s tweet congratulating Ganguly –

Ganguly has some challenges ahead of him as the BCCI president. The Bengal tiger has already made announcements to work for the welfare of the domestic players.
