Seems even Patel could not dodge Dada's antics!
Anyway, attention to details, after weeks of lobbying and hectic parleys, former captain, 47-year-old Ganguly emerged as the unopposed candidate for the post. Today is the last day for filing nominations but elections are less likely to take place owing to the turnout of events.

It was always between Ganguly and Patel and eventually, it came down to Ganguly.
FYI, Ganguly is currently the president of Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), and he will demit from his post in September 2020.
Also, since Patel lost to Ganguly BCCI's presidential elections, he might be given the post of IPL chairman. As a consolation?
Anyway, the conclusion here is, you might not see Dhoni in the national team, but you're going to see him in IPL for a long time!
If you know what I mean! *Wink*
