However, CAB President Sourav Ganguly has consistently denied taking any responsibility, claiming that they have delivered only the requests that were made to them.
The match ended three days after the start of the game, and the two teams could not even go past the score of 200, a single time across the four innings. Temba Bavuma remained the only half-century in the match.
“No, no, I don’t get involved at all,” he told India Today when asked whether he was consulted by the Indian team management before preparing the pitch. He has accepted that it was a very challenging surface, but has never accepted the blame.
"India must play on much better wickets than what they played at Eden Gardens,” said the former BCCI President
The former BCCI President acknowledged the pitch to not be the greatest and reiterated that India should back its quality by playing on better tracks with more balanced surfaces at home. It has already been noted that India impresses with strong batting performances on competitive tracks, as they did in England.
He further went on to add that Ganguly added the decision to prepare such a surface stemmed from requests by the Indian team management. He also pointed out that Gautam Gambhir, the head coach, admitted that they got the pitch just like they wanted.

"Gautam as a coach and Shubman as a captain did exceptionally well in England on good batting pitches, and I firmly believe that they can do well in India as well.
