Gavaskar claims he got a bad decision. Let's say it is true(which is questionable). But wait, haven't others dealt with it better than this? Should all of them throw away the game? It is not as if Umpire indulged in blatant cheating ( which they sometimes do). Gavaskar later claims that he heard someone abuse him. If you see the video, the claim doesn't appear to be true. It is just that he lost his cool. Not that abusing is fine. It is stupid that someone would be dumb to forfeit a game over odd abuse and expects people to buy this claim

Read what Gavaskar says.

They say sledging has always been part of the game, but is that true? I am not so sure. I played more than one Test match for my country with and against bowlers who took hundreds of wickets and there was hardly a word uttered in anger on the field. Yes, towards the end of my career I did get referred to a couple of times by a part of the female anatomy and, more than anger, it saddened me to hear that.

In fact, one of those instances led to the most regrettable incident of my career, when I almost forfeited a game by asking my fellow opener to walk off with me. I was given out lbw in spite of getting a thick inside edge to the ball and, though I showed my disappointment, I was going back to the pavilion and would have ended up like all disappointed batsmen do - by throwing my bat or screaming myself hoarse in the privacy of the dressing room.

But as I had gone about 15 or so yards towards the pavilion I heard the abuse which made me explode and take that stupid action of asking my partner to walk off with me. Fortunately, the manager of the team stopped my partner from crossing the boundary and so we didn't forfeit the game but went on to win it. That and another time later on are the only instances that I have come across sledging and it's simply distasteful.

  • We from India always thought, when we played against Australia we always played against 14 :)

  • Listen to the jiggly heads - they're still doing it to this day. If they don't get the decision they want then they walk off the field. Gavaskar is no different from any other captain of Jiglia. Yet their umpires were the worst in the world. Go and check out how few LBW's were given to Australian bowlers in India before international umpires were introduced. No wonder they think they should never be out! "Oh my goodness this is not being the rule we use at home"
