Dk Jain to meet Sourav Ganguly in person:
Recently, just a few days ahead of the tournament, Sourav Ganguly signed a deal for Delhi Capitals. He will be the advisor of the team. Despite that, he was seen sitting in the dugout alongside Ricky Ponting during the progress of the match.
Delhi Capitals made quite a few changes to the latest edition of the tournament. They made wholesome changes with a new set of players and the support staff. But the signing of Sourav Ganguly came as a great boost for the team, as he can offer a lot to the team.
