Date: September 15, 2009
Kolkata, Sep 15 (PTI) Hailing Sourav Ganguly's decision to enter cricket administration, Kapil Dev today said former players like him are best suited for the role, not the politicians.

Taking an indirect dig at the BCCI's mandarins who have political affinities, the World Cup winning captain said, "Politicians should do politics, like doctors in medicine and engineers in engineering."

"Ganguly is a great cricketer and I believe he would do justice to cricket administration. If great cricketers like him do not get into the cricket administration than who else should? Cricketers should take a cue from Ganguly and run the show for the betterment of the game," said Kapil.

Having retired from the international cricket last year, Ganguly had said he wanted to join cricket administration.
