Megastar Amitabh Bachchan hilariously made a numerical slip-up as he underestimated former cricketer Sunil Gavaskar's age by 10 years. However, he later corrected it.
Gavaskar says at the ripe young age of 75, he needs to be introduced to the gathering as he quit the game 40 years ago.
Legendary opener Sunil Gavaskar has said the business of bashing India has to be countered with aggression, citing the recent comments made on the possibility of Joe Root surpassing Sachin Tendulkar as the leading run-getter in men’s Test cricket.
After Shikhar Dhawan recently called time on his playing career across all formats, legendary India opener Sunil Gavaskar feels the left-handed opener’s retirement leaves cricket ‘poorer'.
"There must be a formula to pick a winner in case of a drawn World Test Championship final. ICC's cricket committee should think and then take a decision," Gavaskar told a news channel.
Gavaskar, who was the first batsman to get to 10,000 runs in Test cricket, said Indian batsmen should not face any problems with swing bowling unless the weather is wet.
The former opening batsman picked South African batsman AB de Villiers as the best batsman in the format.
Rohit Sharma looked to be in a fine touch as he made his way to a comfortable score of 44 runs off 74 deliveries before getting out to Nathan Lyon.
Sunil Gavaskar said that in Kohli's absence, Rahane would be moving up from number five to number four, while Hanuma Vihari might bat at five.
