Sourav Ganguly is stable and recovering and will likely be discharged from the hospital on Wednesday, hospital authorities said.
A nine-member board of senior doctors discussed Ganguly’s condition on Monday and reached a consensus that though necessary, angioplasty can be deferred to a later date as he is stable, Woodlands Hospital MD and CEO Dr. Rupali Basu said.
Renowned cardiologists Dr. Devi Shetty and Dr. R K Panda participated in the meeting through a virtual platform while another expert from the US was part of the discussion over the phone, she said.
Asked when Ganguly is likely to be discharged, Dr. Basu said: “Dr. Devi Shetty is coming tomorrow. We will have another round of discussion. He is likely to be discharged on Wednesday.”
Meanwhile, Minister of State for Finance and former BCCI president Anurag Thakur visited Ganguly at the hospital and hoped that the former India captain would return to “routine, normal life soon”.
