Former India captain and Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) President Sourav Ganguly will have the 'C' stand in his name at the Eden Gardens here.

The 'K' block will be named after former Board of Control of Cricket for India (BCCI) President Jagmohan Dalmiya.

Blocks 'D' and 'H' will belong to former India opener and Bengal captain Pankaj Roy and ex-BCCI President B.N. Dutt.

"I am overwhelmed. I thank the CAB for honouring my father who devoted a major portion of his life for the cause of cricket with discipline and dedication," Subrata Dutta, son of B.N. Dutt and Vice President of the All India Football Federation, told IANS.

According to Ganguly, four more stands will be named later.
