Sunil Gavaskar commented on England's batting struggles in the Ashes, drawing parallels to a past Test series against India. He suggested that England players who previously mocked Indian cricketers Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar for prioritizing centuries might now understand the value of such achievements, given their own batting failures. Gavaskar noted that Jadeja and Sundar were tactically batting to reach milestones, a strategy he defended.
