Arvind R Ganguly though an ordinary fielder, but had taken some stunning catches - even in the last part of his carrer. However was thousands of miles ahead in batting than others in the list except Gavaskar. Taking ODIs into consideration he surpasses even Gavaskar hands down ..... so uselessly talking about his feilding in the commentry discussion is fooolish!

I said he is doing great in commentatory. I admire on his thoughts and courage displayed in the commenatory when ian bell was given out in the recent eng series, when others like gavaskar was questioning that
but still will not agree to his fielding, will not bend down or run behind the ball.

get sidhu into the list. He is real wonder. Has vocubalary /idioms and phrases more than english commentators.
Picture this.. Adam Gilchrist, one of the most prolific hitters in game got $600000 in IPL for 1 season. Chris Gayle got even less. Fine Gavaskar "Apparently" is doing some strategic thinking for BCCI but is it really worth 1 million? Will we really miss his services, I will say NO.

And if he was part of governing council that failed to govern, should he not be fined a million dollars?

Sunny is a greedy lout. Always has been, always will be. He might have been a great cricketer but he is a despicable human being. He along with Shastri has been dipping into the cricket coffers just as much as Modi had been. These guys make me sick !
gavi should be helping the indian players not fighting like a crap player... shows his selfish mind... he was causing a lot of problems when kapil was made a captain... his attitude is so bad... gavi's ties with bcci are getting disconnected... he'll no longer be treated as an expert... he'll be sacked from all his positions relating to bcci... he needs it for being selfish and cunning...
