Both Ganguly and Tendulkar were impressed with the dominating performance of Indian colts throughout the tournament.
It was a four-match Test series between India and Australia when Ganguly announced his retirement out of the blue.
Sourav Ganguly revealed that his differences with Greg Chappell started with a side game during the tour of Zimbabwe in 2005.
Sourav Ganguly said the wicket was "unfair" for the batsmen and International Cricket Council (ICC) should look into the matter.
India pacers Kamlesh Nagrakoti (3/29) and Shivam Mavi (3/45) impressed with their speed and accuracy in the opening match.
Ganguly believes India’s bowling attack is their biggest strength in South African conditions and playing five bowlers will benefit the visiting side.
The International Cricket Council has previously said the majority of member nations are behind the push, along with chief executive David Richardson.
Virat took little Zoravar in his arms and literally made themselves the centre of attraction when they started grooving.
The former captain is impressed with the current India bowling attack but wants to wait till he watches them in action on the upcoming South Africa tour.
Last Monday, the BCCI general body decided to form a working group that will study the new FTP, where the Indian team plays 81 matches at home across three formats during the five-year-cycle from 2019-2023.
Ganguly's comment came after some reports stated that concerned with poor ticket sales especially during the India- Sri Lanka series opener last month at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
Ganguly also added that he told then-coach John Wright that if Anil Kumble was not picked for that tour, he might not play for India.
The former India skipper also said that the players should be looked after well by the cricket authorities as their careers are short.
The former skipper said that he eagerly wanted to be the national coach but became CAB president later on.
Meanwhile, Ganguly predicted that Kohli will surpass batting great Sachin Tendulkar's One-Day Internationals (ODIs) record of 49 tons.
