It seems Gavaskar has been hit where it hurts him most %u2013 his protégé Sachin has been axed.
He would always make light of Sachin%u2019s dismissal or his poor form, and find some excuse to explain it. But now he has had to shed his boring diplomatic façade to cry foul.
It is not to say that whatever that rogue Chappell did was right. In fact Chappell%u2019s shenanigans from day one spelt nothing but disaster for Indian cricket.
Never mind whatever was happening with Indian cricket, Gavaskar chose to keep quiet all these days because his protégé was not affected.
Gavaskar was also well aware that some senile scamps in the BCCI (with whom he is chummy with) blindly supported Chappell.
But now it is a different story. Sachin has been excluded, and rightly so. The Mumbai man is unable to digest that, and he has started bewailing.
Anyway, BCCI is being run by incompetent people like Pawar who have to depend on crooks and fools around him to run the show; and when there is a coterie of crooks and fools there can be only one thing %u2013 chaos and downfall.
India%u2019s bane has always been the self-seeking agenda driven mean minded unpatriotic people. In Chappell%u2019s case, India repeated itself.
