Replying to the same, Virat said, “I congratulated him. It’s great that he has become the BCCI president but he has not spoken to me about that yet. He’ll get in touch with me when he has to.” Adding some laughter to his words, the Indian skipper said, “I am sure. What do I say about that? I’ll go meet him when he tells me to. That’s it.”
