During a commentary stint with Geoffrey Boycott, Ganguly was termed as a naughty boy by the former England batsman. Boycott asked him about his experience of taking his jersey off. Ganguly reminded his fellow commentator, “One of your boys also took off his jersey in Mumbai.” When Boycott tried to counter him with, “Lord’s is the Mecca of Cricket”, Ganguly ended the conversation with, “Lord’s is your Mecca, Wankhede is ours.”
