The captain wasthen fined 75 per cent of his match fees for his verbal outburstagainst Sri Lankan batsman Russel Arnold in India’s penultimate leaguematch on August 1.Media reports on Thursday said that apart from Muthiah, nationalselectors had also expressed concern over Ganguly’s “whimsicalbehaviour”.
