Former India captain Sourav Ganguly on Wednesday said as the leader of the team Virat Kohli has got every right to voice his opinion in the coach selection process. In his first media interaction after India’s World Cup semi-final exit, Kohli backed Ravi Shastri to continue as India head coach after his extended tenure ends with the tour of the West Indies beginning later this week.
“He is the captain. He has got every right to say,” Ganguly said referring to Kohli’s comment at the pre-departure media interaction in Mumbai on Monday. Ganguly was part of the Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) which picked Shastri as the head coach in 2017.
