Snehasish , elder brother of BCCI president Sourav Ganguly, was hospitalised in Kolkata on Friday night.
Snehasish had undergone a heart procedure earlier this year and was rushed to hospital after he started vomiting.
Former India opener Sourav is currently in London for the second England- India Test match at Lord's and is said to be in constant touch with the family.
According to family sources there is 'nothing serious', and is a simple case of 'stomach infection.'
"He has a stomach infection and his COVID infection has turned negative," hospital sources said.
Snehasish Ganguly's heart ailment was detected when his younger brother Sourav was recovering from a heart surgery at a private hospital in Kolkata in January this year.
