Sunil Gavaskar Supports BCCI Ban on Overseas IPL Players Withdrawing Late
Sunil Gavaskar criticized some overseas IPL players for withdrawing late after being signed, sometimes citing injuries but playing domestic cricket soon after. He supported the BCCI's two-year ban on players who pull out without valid reasons and suggested extending bans to those who feign injuries to avoid playing regularly. Gavaskar highlighted the financial and logistical challenges franchises face due to such withdrawals and accused some players and their boards of not honoring IPL commitments seriously.
