Sunny as BCCI chief?
Print Edition
BATTING legend Sunil Gavaskar said he was willing to step in as president of the Indian cricket board yesterday after the Supreme Court recommended he take over from embattled incumbent N Srinivasan. “There is nothing that you can do if the Supreme Court — the highest court — asks you to do something, that’s it,” the retired opening batsman, who is now a television commentator, told the NDTV network. “The fact that I am contracted to the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) to do TV commentary has to be put on record. After that if the honorable Supreme Court tells you to do something, then of course ... if they ask me to do something, I will do it.” Gavaskar’s comments came after judges proposed the 65-year-old take over on an interim basis as president of the BCCI from Srinivasan who has so far defied their calls to stand down during a probe into illegal betting.
