Kolkata/UNI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president and former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly was discharged from a city hospital Friday after receiving treatment for Covid-19 but will remain in isolation for two weeks.

The BCCI chief was released from the Woodlands Hospital in south Kolkata after undergoing treatment for Covid-19 for the past five days.

The 49-year-old former Indian skipper would remain in home isolation under medical supervision, the hospital authorities said, while adding that Ganguly was rushed to the hospital after his RT-PCR test came positive on Monday.

Ganguly was earlier administered with the Monoclonal Antibody Cocktail therapy, as he displayed mild symptoms of the coronavirus.

The cricket hero has been admitted twice to hospital this year and had undergone emergency angioplasty after complaining of cardiac problems earlier.
