No cricket fan can ever forget the iconic moment when former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly took his shirt off during India's historic NatWest series triumph over England back in 2002 at the Lord's Cricket Ground.
However, the new Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president was back at the iconic stadium on Friday (December 13) and shared selfies with his colleagues on social media from the venue.
Ganguly is currently in England to lead his team of officials for a meeting with the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
The BCCI chief took to Twitter and shared a couple of selfies with treasurer Arun Singh Dhumal and secretary Jay Shah.
"Nice venue to get back to in a different capacity .. with 2 very dear people," Ganguly captioned his tweet.

Back in 1996, a 24-year-old Sourav made his Test debut for India at the Lord's and announced his arrival with a fantastic century against England.
