Ganguly declared last week that he will run in the upcoming Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) elections after Roger Binny took over as BCCI president, but now he has since made the decision.
Sourav Ganguly, a former BCCI executive, has withdrawn from the Cricket Association of Bengal’s presidential election. Snehasish Ganguly, his brother, is expected to take over as head of the cricket organization.

The CAB President is going to be his brother. In the meantime, Amalendu Biswas submitted his application for the role of vice president, Naresh Ojha for the secretary position, Debabrata Das for the joint-secretary position, and Prabir Chakraborty for the position of treasurer at CAB.
