BCCI president Sourav Ganguly broke his silence on the speculation of his exit from the Indian board and made it clear that his tenure as the chief will end soon.

During an event, Dada said, "I was the president of CAB for five years. I have been the president of BCCI for three years. I will go on to do something else now. 15 years of my cricketing career were the best. All these have terms after which you have to leave and go. The challenge as a cricketer is a lot more. As an administrator, you have to contribute so much. You have to make things better for the team. Me being a player, who played for a long period of time, understood that. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Establish the brand across the world."

"I have been an administrator and I will move on to something else. You can't be a player forever, you can't be an administrator forever. It's been great doing both."

Roger Binny is all set to replace Ganguly as the new BCCI president soon and reportedly, Dada refused to accept the post of becoming the new IPL chairman.
