Amid the controversy surrounding BCCI not offering central contracts to Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan over non-participation in domestic cricket, Ganguly mentioned that there are many players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and even Australia's David Warner who have successfully balanced both red-ball and white-ball cricket. He even recalled how he along with Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar used to play both formats during their playing days.

The India vs England series was in many ways an acid Test for Rohit Sharma and Co. Not only India were facing an opponent which had won almost everything that came their way in the past couple of years, the hosts were missing top stars too. Virat Kohli, Mohammed Shami missed the entire series for various reasons while injury and poor form ruled out some other big names. India gave debut to the likes of Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, Akash Deep, Rajat Patidar and yet sealed the series with one match to go. Going into the final Test of the series, India are leading 3-1.
