Kolkata: Former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly who retired from international cricket in the year 2008 said that he at times regrets his decision to quit and could have extended his career by couple of years.
In an interview to the Kolkata based Telegraph said, “I do regret my decision to retire sometimes, that I should not have acted in anger. But I did it and that bit is done and dusted. I could have played for another two years.”
Ganguly since his retirement has played in four seasons of Indian Premier League (IPL). Ganguly retired month after he was dropped from the Rest of India side for the Irani Trophy following a poor string of performance in Sri Lanka where he averaged only 16.
"I did not have one good series (in Sri Lanka) and, when the Irani Trophy squad was announced, my name was missing. I had stopped enjoying my game because I started to think about things not related to my cricket. I could have probably just said 'Let them do what they want' and wait for my time,” added Ganguly.
