The Board of Control for Cricket in India is not planning to seek an explantion from Sourav Ganguly [Images] over his decision to skip the last two Ranji Trophy ties for Bengal.

"We are not going to write to anyone seeking explanation. What can we do if he doesn't play," said BCCI Secretary Niranjan Shah, reacting to reports that Selection Committee Chairman Kiran More was unhappy with Ganguly's decision of not playing in Ranji matches.

The former India skipper, who was dropped for the third Test against Sri Lanka [Images] at Ahmedabad, was brought back into the national squad for the upcoming three-Test series in Pakistan in view of his "experience."

• How Ganguly made it back

Ganguly, after being omitted for the last Test against the Lankans, used the intervening period to airdash to Delhi from Kolkata and have a one-on-one meeting with BCCI chief Sharad Pawar [Images].

During this period, Bengal clashed with Karnataka in their Elite Division Group A tie at Bangalore and are now playing against Gujarat at Surat. Ganguly did not play in both these matches.

More could not be contacted on the issue.

Meanwhile, Ganguly resumed practice in Kolkata on Monday.

Ganguly spent one and half hours at the Eden Gardens and the adjoining Pankaj Gupta Indoor Training Centre for a rigorous workout in the gym.

He also had a session in the nets at the PGITC.
