Kolkata: Sourav Ganguly, who is set to become the BCCI president, on Tuesday expressed his reservations over the ICC's attempt to stage the 50-over World Cup every three years. The World Cup has traditionally been a quadrennial event since its first edition in 1975. However, the 1992 edition was held after a five-year gap and the 1999 edition after a three-year gap.
"Sometimes less is more in life. So we have got to be careful with that. And the football World Cup happens every four years and you see the madness," Ganguly told reporters at the Cricket Association of Bengal office here. Ganguly arrived to a rousing welcome in Kolkata after filing his nomination papers for the BCCI president's post in Mumbai on Monday. He is expected to be elected unopposed in the BCCI elections on October 23.
