Sourav Ganguly has said that he was not in a position to take up the job of Indian cricket team's coach at present even if offered to him. "I really don't know as I have got another job to do at the moment. I am actually running the cricket (as CAB president). You can't do both at the same time. "You have to see where life goes.

I have just started a career and I don't where it will go and where it will finish. I don't rule out anything in life nor do I look too far forward either. I live for the day and the moment.
