Dubai: Former Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar found himself in the midst of controversies after his comments on Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma during the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) match, has not gone well with the fans.
Kohli endured one of his worst days on the field on Thursday against Kings XI Punjab dropping KL Rahul twice and also failing with the bat as his team suffered a crushing 97-run defeat. Gavaskar who was doing commentary during the match took a dig at Anushka saying, “Inhone lockdown me to bas Anushka ki gendon ki practice ki hai.”
After this, the Kohli fans demanded the removal of Gavaskar from the BCCI commentary panel. Here’s how Kohli’s fans reacted:
Gavaskar sir have u now completely lost it or something? A senior cricketer saying such stuff about anyone let alone ICTs captain. Man u lost all the respect we had for you.

This is so disgusting. The way they don't forget to bring Anushka whenever he doesn't perform is so filthy. In whatever context he said, this statement cannot be justified. It isn't funny at all. https://t.co/0uJXjaSijl
