It seems like the banter between the two Indian Cricketing legends, Sourav Ganguly and Ravi Shastri is far from over. Shastri recently revealed that Ganguly was not present at the interview which he gave for the Indian coach's position. And said Sourav should let him know what Ganguly said Shastri was living in a "fool's world" if he thought he was the one who reduced the former coach's chances and that he was surprised and saddened at the personal attack.
In a statement Ganguly said, "If Ravi thinks because of me that he is not the coach of Team India, then he is living in a fool's world. Ravi has made a personal attack which was not expected and is very saddening. It was already previously decided that I will attend the CAB working committee meeting on the day of these coach elections. I say this with anger that my counter piece of advise to Shastri is that he should have been present physically and not holidaying in Bangkok for such an important event". He said this as Shastri has given his interview via a video link as he was on a holiday in Bangkok.
