The 48-year-old cricket icon, who had to undergo a stent insertion, was declared stable and clinically fit by doctors.

"I am absolutely fine," Ganguly said before boarding his private vehicle to return home.

"I thank all the doctors, the nurses and everybody in the hospital for treating me," he added.
