We have not seen Gavaskar in such bad taste. It was like spewing a venom on the batsman who has failed with his ignorance.
“Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! You’ve got two fielder there and you still go for that. You’ve missed the previous shot and look where you’ve been caught. You’ve seen caught at deep third man. That is throwing away your wicket. Not in the situation that India was.
You have to understand the situation as well. You cannot say that is your natural game. I am sorry that is not your natural game. That is a stupid shot. That is letting your team down badly. He should not be going in that (Indian) dressing room, he should be going into the other dressing room,” Gavaskar said on ABC Sport.
This can be called as an open and bold attack bya senior man like Gavaskar in open. No one would expect such kind of words against a cricketer.
