New Delhi: A day after slamming the powerful Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) over payment of his dues, former India captain Sunil Gavaskar said his comments were taken out of context.
“I am extremely disappointed by the media reports after my show on NDTV about the offer made to me to come on board the IPL. Since I did not give any interviews to any other media outlets I presume that the quotes wrongfully attributed to me have been taken from the TV show. I am writing this to clarify any misconceptions that may have been created through published and telecast news items over the past couple of days,” Gavaskar said in a statement.
Gavaskar reportedly was upset after the BCCI at its working committee meeting here on Monday turned down his offer of $1 million per season for media and governing council related activities. (IANS)
