A public spat has emerged between cricketing legend Sunil Gavaskar and current Indian skipper Rohit Sharma. The tension started when Gavaskar, known affectionately as the ‘Little Master,’ began going public with open criticism of Sharma’s attitude and approach in recent matches, sparking heated debates across the cricketing world.
Gavaskar, one of the most revered figures in Indian cricket, questions Sharma’s leadership style and tactical decisions, especially when it comes to high-stakes games. He points out a lack of urgency in critical moments, stating that a stronger focus and sharper strategies are essential for India’s aspirations on the global stage.
Sharma has apparently submitted his complaints to the Board of Control for Cricket in India, BCCI. He has said that these comments were unnecessary and demoralizing for the team. Sources close to the captain say he is of the view that such comments discredit his work with a young and growing team in trying international situations.
The rift between the two icons has sparked heated debate among fans and analysts. While some argue that Gavaskar’s comments are justified as constructive feedback, others say that they could have been said privately to avoid unnecessary drama.
As the Indian cricket team prepares to play in major tournaments, one waits with bated breath at how this issue will pan out. Will the controversy bring necessary change or open up further divisions in the cricket world?
