It certainly isn’t the best of starts to the 2021 New Year in the Ganguly household. A couple of hours ago, Read Scoops heard reports of the BCCI Chairman and former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly being admitted to hospital after complaints of uneasiness. Reports suggest that he is now admitted to a hospital in Kolkata.
As part of his usual routine, Sourav was at the gym when he apparently felt dizzy, post which he was taken to Woodlands Hospital in Kolkata. Reports all around suggest that Ganguly suffered a cardiac arrest earlier today but no official statement has been made about his condition as yet.
One of the most popular players in the history of Indian cricket, Sourav is fondly known as ‘Dada’ and millions of fans across the world have been wishing him a speedy recovery, regardless of what actually happened. It was West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee who tweeted saying Ganguly suffered a mild cardiac arrest, wishing him a quick recovery as well. See that tweet here:
Sad to hear that @SGanguly99 suffered a mild cardiac arrest and has been admitted to hospital.
Wishing him a speedy and full recovery. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family!
— Mamata Banerjee (@MamataOfficial) January 2, 2021
However, there has been no official statement from Sourav’s family or even from the hospital as yet. Hundreds of known politicians, cricketers and celebrities wish Dada a speedy recovery including BCCI Secretary Jay Shah, Virat Kohli, Virender Sehwag, the official BCCI twitter handle, and West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankar.
