Sourav Ganguly cites ombudsman order to address conflict of interest concerns
Ganguly cites BCCI ombudsman order to address dual role concerns with his new IPL position while serving as CAB president.
Sourav Ganguly has rejected questions over potential conflict of interest linked to his appointment as Delhi Capitals head coach. The former India captain said an order from the BCCI ombudsman addresses his position while he remains president of the Cricket Association of Bengal.
Ganguly will take charge of Delhi Capitals for the 2027 IPL season, replacing Hemang Badani. He has held multiple positions with the franchise since joining in 2019, including Director of Cricket for both men's and women's teams. He also coached Pretoria Capitals to the SA20 final last year.
Yuvraj Singh is expected to join the backroom staff as batting coach. Chaminda Vaas and Amit Mishra are reportedly set to join the support team. Delhi Capitals finished sixth in IPL 2026 and have not reached the playoffs since 2021.
