'T20 is here to stay, it will...', says Ganguly

NEW DELHI:

Sourav Ganguly

's praise for

T20 cricket

is no surprise considering his pioneering role in shaping India's aggressive brand of cricket during his captaincy.
T20 has indeed revolutionised the sport, offering a fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled version that appeals to a wider audience. Its shorter duration, dynamic gameplay, and entertainment value have made it immensely popular, attracting new fans and commercial opportunities.
Ganguly's endorsement of T20's significance underscores its integral role in

modern cricket

and its potential to further propel the sport's growth, particularly at grassroots levels through tournaments like the

Bengal Pro T20 League

.

"It is a great introduction to the game. Change is inevitable in everything. Many of us who started playing 2-day cricket and 4-day cricket will have to accept that T20 cricket is here to stay and it is something that will take the game forward," Ganguly said during the unveiling of the Bengal Pro T20 League trophy.

Bengal Pro T20 League is the official franchise-based Premier T20 Cricket league of the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB).
Speaking about the same to the media, Ganguly said," It's (T20 Leagues) happening in every state. We are probably 5-6 years late on this. Any way of playing the sport will always be very helpful. T20 is an important part of cricket these days and this will be a huge opportunity for everyone to perform."
