Batting legend Sunil Gavaskar was not impressed. Before Saturday’s RCB v GT game in Bangalore, he fumed: “All these guys talk about, ‘oh we don’t care about outside noise’. Accha! Then, why are you replying to any outside noise or whatever it is? We all played a bit of cricket, not a lot of cricket. We don’t have agendas. We speak about what we see. We don’t necessarily have any likes and dislikes. Even if we have likes and dislikes, we actually speak on what is happening.” Gavaskar also expressed his disappointment over Star Sports airing that Kohli reaction time and again.
