India’s visit to South Africa is still going in the right direction, said Sourav Ganguly, president of the Cricket Management Board (BCCI) in India. On Tuesday said India’s tour to South Africa remains on schedule and they’re keeping a close watch on the situation surrounding the emergence of the new COVID-19 variant. There is growing concern about the emergence of a new form of COVID 19, originally identified in South Africa, called Omicron. “As of today, the tour is still running. We still have time to decide. The first test is scheduled for December 17th.” Besides the promotional event, Ganguly notified reporters.

India will have a final test with New Zealand in Mumbai before leaving for a Johannesburg charter plane on December 8th or 9th. “Player safety and health have always been BCCI’s first concern and we will do our utmost to ensure it. Let’s see what happens in the next few days. India will play 3 Tests, 3 ODIs, and 4 T20s during the visit.”
The former Indian skipper also predicted that unfavorable all-rounder Hardik Pandya would regain his position on the team after regaining full health. Recently, the great Kapil Dev questioned Hardik Pandia’s position as an all-rounder on the Indian roster after quitting bowling after back surgery. “Don’t compare him (Hardik) with Kapil Dev.” “He belongs to another level,” Ganguly said. Furthermore, he added “He is a good cricketer. He’s not fit, that’s why he’s not there in the team. He’s young, I hope he makes a comeback after recovering from his injury,” he said.
