I think the apology should come spontaneously from Ishanth or whoever is assoiciated with it, since Sammy has expressed his hurt. But, it has to be made clear to Sammy that Kaalu is not racist comment in Indian context. Here we lovingly call people lambu, tingu, kaalia, mota etc. It is always taken in lighter vein. if a friend calls you as such , it is considered as no offence meant. I am sure, team mates are close friends & they call each other by all sorts of names.
Dear Ishant , every human being is same , don't compare any body with colors. Racism is a cancer of our society and world Ban Ishant from all formats for ever.
Isanth Sharma and other team mates including the team Management of Sun Risers should apologize. By doing so they are not falling down but raising up and making every Indian proud.Hope Sammy will forget and forgive. I apologize as an Indian. Sammy has fans in India, surely he will forget and forgive.
Our racist underbelly is exposed badly what is the point in calling out the US for racism when we still have it in our country in various forms.In Bangalore it is against the NEstates ,, in Delhi agaist the blacks and now in IPL WHAT IS SAURAUB GANGULI going to do now

Well if people prefer using ‘maaki’ over ‘manki’ opportunistically and are supported by an entire nation, then I am sorry to say it’s extremely unfortunate!!
