Legendary Indian cricketer, Sunil Gavaskar has, once again, landed in a huge controversy, following his disgraceful comments while commentating during the match between Chennai and Rajasthan. Gavaskar passed a distasteful comment on Shimron Hetmyer and his wife and the fans blasted him on Twitter for his avoidable remark.
Shimron Hetmyer returned to the playing XI of Rajasthan in their last game against Chennai. He had left the bio-bubble, earlier, due to the birth of his first child. He also shared the photo after becoming a father before joining the camp again.
The West Indies batter arrived at the crease yesterday when his team were in tricky situation, needing 75 off 42 balls. Upon his arrival, Sunil Gavaskar in the commentary panel, said, "Hetmyer's wife delivered, will Hetmyer deliver for the Royals now?" His comment didn’t go down well with the fans and they lashed out at the former Indian cricketer for his bizarre remark. Here’s a look at some of the reactions.
Meanwhile, Rajasthan registered their 9th win after beating Chennai by 5 wickets on Friday at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. Despite Moeen Ali’s heroic knock, Rajasthan restricted Chennai to 150 runs in the first innings. Yuzvendra Chahal, once again, starred with the ball as he picked 2 for 26 in 4 overs.
Rajasthan, in reply, chased down the score in 19.4 overs. Yashasvi Jaiswal played a valuable knock of 59 runs in 44 balls, including 8 fours and 1 six. However, he lacked support from the other end. Rajasthan were in a spot of bother at 112 for 5 in 16.2 overs. But a game-changing 40 off 23 from Ravichandran Ashwin meant Rajasthan chased down the score in 19.4 overs. With that win, they have finished at second spot on the points table.
Sanju Samson and Co. are set to play against Gujarat in the qualifier 1 on Tuesday at Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata.
