G.R.Viswanath and Sunil Gavaskar

And how can one not think of the great artiste with the bat :G R Viswanath?

His crackling square cuts and drives mixed with solid defence against the best of pace bowlers, as he demonstrated during his classic 97 not out against the then invincible Caribbeans in a Test match at Chennai, will exactly fit into the philosophy of IPL: giving the fans  their money’s worth….

Tail piece: would the fans today prefer to see SMG- a lead commentator now in IPL,  at the crease representing a franchise and showing them what copy book cricket is. He too represents an era of supreme talents in Indian cricket since the 70s upto…. when he decided to hang up his boots/bat!
