Gautam Gambhir is not fit because of his shoulder injury. He is not going for the West Indies tour but played for the IPL. Everybody is saying why he played for the club & not playing for the country. Is it the money nowadays that player is playing and are not patriotic. There is not patriotism amongst the younger player these days. Sunil gavaskar said that its very unfortunate these days player gives more value to money than for playing for country. ON the contrary to it Kapil Dev said that it is good that player follow that their mind asks them to do. Why is it that people are commenting on any player not going or playing for India? Why no one raised their voice when Sachin did not played the T-20 world cup but after a fortnight played for the IPL. Does Sachin need more money or he is saving for his future. When nobody questions Sachin why he did not played for the country then why one should question other player. Where was Mr.Gavaskar at that time or where were the channels who are now asking questions or making noises about whether a player should prefer his country or club.
It is not that I have a soft corner for Gambhir or younger player but all rules should be same for each and every player whether it’s Sachin or Gambhir or for that matter any player. Even the media should understand this and should not question just for questioning or creating something just for the sake of getting a news which increases its TRP…
