'Who are you?' ICC official asks Ganguly at Eden Gardens

Ganguly, who was doing his maiden commentary assignment at the Eden for the host television broadcaster during the India-England one dayer Tuesday, was stopped by an anti-corruption unit (ACU) official of the International Cricket Council (ICC) when he was entering the ground for the pitch report before the start of the game.

The ACU official, Dharmender Singh Yadav, asked him "Who are you?" to which a startled Ganguly reportedly replied "I'm Sourav Ganguly, going for the pitch report". However, Yadav was not impressed and asked for his identity card, which Ganguly was not carrying then as he had left it at the commentary box.

Ganguly had to walk back to the commentary box, get his card and then only Yadav allowed him into the ground. Ganguly did not make any comment on the incident.
However, Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) joint secretary Biswarup Dey said he had heard that such an incident did take place. "The thing was sorted out. But I will speak to Ganguly," he said.
