Sourav Ganguly, the former India captain and BCCI President, was appointed as the Director of Cricket for the Pretoria Capitals ahead of the SA20 2025 season. This move comes after Sourav Ganguly stepped down from his role with the Delhi Capitals’ men’s team in the IPL. Recently, Sourav Ganguly joined the Pretoria Capitals camp with the first match of the tournament to be played on January 9.
The Pretoria Capitals have also made several key additions to their squad, including England all-rounder Liam Livingstone and West Indies power-hitter Evin Lewis. With new captain Rilee Rossouw and head coach Jonathan Trott at the helm, the team is gearing up for a comeback after a disappointing SA20 2024 season.

Ganguly’s new role will see him overseeing both the Pretoria Capitals in the SA20 and the Delhi Capitals’ women’s team in the Women’s Premier League (WPL). This transition marks a significant shift for Ganguly, who has been associated with men’s cricket for decades. His extensive experience and cricketing acumen are expected to bring valuable insights and leadership to the Pretoria Capitals as they aim for a strong performance in the upcoming season.
