Sourav Ganguly refrains from drawing parallels between IPL and BPL: IPL is the second-best sports league in the world

India Today  

Former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly reckoned that it won’t be fair to compare the Indian Premier League and the Bangladesh Premier League. Ganguly, who played for the Kolkata Knight Riders and now-defunct Pune Warriors, said that the IPL is the “second-best sports league” in the world and has gone a long way, both in terms of competitiveness and financial heights. Ganguly, however, mentioned that he had a chat with Bangladesh Cricket Board president Najmul Hasan Papon on how to improve the standards of the BPL in the coming years. Moreover, Ganguly lauded Bangladesh for improving as a cricket team and beating a powerhouse like India two times at home.
