Ganguly, who is currently the president of Cricket Association of Bengal also informed that the association has made profits to the tune of more than Rs 10 crore in the last fiscal, as some dues are not cleared with Lodha reforms not being implemented.

“We made a lot of profits this year. It’s actually more than Rs 10 crore,” the CAB president Ganguly said after their finance committee meeting.

The CAB working committee will meet on July 27.
