Come June and former India cricket captain Saurav Ganguly will be seen in a new role.
Instead of willow, the cricket star would be holding a speaker in his hand and will be seen comparing a Bengali reality show on the small screen.
The retired former national skipper has already signed a contract with Zee Bangla, a popular Bengali television channel in the city, to conduct the weekly show, according to a report published in the Bengali daily "Ananda Bazar Patrika."
The report quoting Saurav said, "Yes I have agreed to this proposal. So far I know I have to conduct a quiz show."
