Speaking on YouTube channel ‘Nadir Ali podcast’, Kamran said, “In 2005 Mohali Test match, Danish (Kaneria) bowled and Shoaib Malik was at silly mid-on and Salman (Butt) was at silly mid-off. Danish missed the length. Sourav Ganguly was at strike and scored a boundary. Shoaib Malik said, ‘Dekha Kamran, kitna pressure hain Dada pe, chakke wala bowl chauka mara. (Did you see Kamran? Seems like Dada is under pressure. That ball should have been hit for a six instead of four)’ Ganguly stepped out of the crease to hit the next ball and he was stumped out. Before leaving he told Malik, ‘Tu bohut tez hai, tujhe me chhodunga nahi, tu bahar aa’.”

The incident had happened in the first innings of the Test match and contrary to Kamran’s statement, Ganguly wasn’t stumped and was rather caught, although off a delivery from Kaneria.
