CAB also wished him the very best for his future endeavours.

Thirty-seven-year-old wicketkeeper batsman before winning the IPL 2022 championship said he also declined a CAB request to play for Bengal in Ranji semi-final match against Madhya Pradesh in June. “Motera, not Eden, is my home,” said Saha, who served Bengal for the past 15 years and played 122 matches for the state.
