Sourav Ganguly couldn't have begun his BCCI president's term on a more nostalgic note. Wearing his India blazer that was given to him when he became captain in 2000, Ganguly entered the press conference room of the Cricket Centre amidst a frenzied atmosphere with the shutterbugs trying to capture every moment.

Ganguly is only the second international cricketer to be elected as BCCI president after Maharaja of Vizianagram in 1954. "I decided I will wear it [blazer] but did not realise that it was so loose," Ganguly remarked yesterday after formally taking charge as BCCI chief following the general body meeting at Cricket
Centre.
