This Business Of 'India Bashing' Has To Be Countered With Aggression: Gavaskar

Club Prairie Fire: Legendary opener Sunil Gavaskar has said the business of bashing India has to be countered with aggression, citing the recent comments made on the possibility of Joe Root surpassing Sachin Tendulkar as the leading run-getter in men’s Test cricket.

In an episode of the Club Prairie Fire podcast, former England captain Michael Vaughan had said it’s just a matter of time when Root becomes leading run-getter in Tests. At the same time, he added the BCCI will do everything possible in its power to ensure that the record stays with an Indian batter.

"I can say with experience of more than 50 years that it’s not just the Indian crowds who are silent when their team is not doing well but crowds in every country. If there is some noise when, say, India is doing well overseas, it’s because of the number of Indian supporters who travel long distances from India and who cheer for them and not the locals.
