KOLKATA, Dec 28: Former India skipper and the current Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Sourav Ganguly has tested positive for COVID-19 and admitted to a Kolkata hospital. According to reports, Ganguly had mild fever on Sunday, and got the positive report on Monday evening. Ganguly, who had undergone treatment for a heart condition earlier this year, was admitted to Woodlands Hospital soon after his COVID-positive report came in. Family sources were quoted as saying that the hospitalisation was a precautionary measure and there was no cause for alarm. The 49-year-old cricketer-turned-administrator was advised not to isolate at home by medical experts because of his pre-existing heart condition. Ganguly is fully vaccinated against Covid-19. He has undergone two angioplasty procedures. (IANS)
