ICC asks Gavaskar to quit Cricket Committee

In a clear bid to reaffirm its supremacy in World Cricket, the ICC has decided to take on the BCCI and its sympathisers. After reinstating controversial umpire Darrell Hair and pulling up teams for indulging in heated altercations on the field, the ICC has decided to sack Sunil Gavaskar as the Chairman, ICC's Cricket Committee. Gavaskar was in news when he made controversial remarks against players, umpires and match referee during and after Sydney Test.

Gavaskar, a staunch critic of Australia and England, continued his tirade, by criticizing these teams for their 'chauvinist' attitude. He wrote in a newspaper column, "Gone are the days when two countries, England and Australia, had the veto power in international cricket, even though the dinosaurs, still trying to voice their prejudiced opinions in the media, may not open their eyes and see the reality. The cricketing world has found that India has no longer a diffident voice in the international cricketing community, but a confident one that knows what is good for its cricket."
