Delhi Capitals’s Director of Cricket—former India captain Sourav Ganguly—has called out the booing of Mumbai Indians’s captain Hardik Pandya and has urged spectators not to jeer him. Ganguly’s team take on MI at Wankhede on Sunday.

“They [spectators] should not boo Pandya. It’s not correct. The franchise has appointed him as captain. That’s what happens in sport. Whether you captain India or a state [side] or your franchise, you are appointed as captain,” Ganguly said during a pre-match press conference on Saturday.
