 "Ex-Indian cricket captain Saurav Ganguly receives anonymous death threat")
Former India cricket captain Sourav Ganguly on Monday said he has received a death threat from an unnamed source.
"I got the letter couple of days back. I have informed the police about the same," the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) President said.
The iconic batsman was scheduled to go to Midnapore district to attend Vidyasagar University's programme jointly organised with the District Sports Association on January 19.
