The Hindu
The legendary Indian batsman said India should never forget England's gesture of returning back to complete a tour halted due to the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
Sunil Gavaskar has lauded the BCCI's offer of rescheduling the cancelled Manchester Test, saying India should never forget England's gesture of returning back to complete a tour, which was halted midway due to the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks in 2008. The fifth Test between India and England was called-off hours before its start on Friday after a COVID-19 outbreak in the visiting team's camp which made the Indian players reluctant to play fearing a positive result might lead to 10-day isolation and scheduling nightmare of Indian Premier League. Both the BCCI and England Cricket Board (ECB) officials later announced that the match will be rescheduled at a later date as a one-off game, but the decision is yet to be made official.
