There is no need to cheat to win: sunil Gavaskar..!?

Former player sunil gavaskar has strongly criticized the indian team's victory for cheating. The t20 series between india and england ended yesterday. In this, the indian team has won the series 4-1. Earlier, a controversy broke out in the fourth match of the series. In that match, shivam Dubey was hit on the head by a ball and was out halfway through the match. Harshit Rana played in his place. This has now become a big controversy. If a player is hit on the head by a ball and cannot play an equal replacement can be made to play for half the match. That is, if it is an equal replacement, a batsman should be selected instead of a batsman, a bowler instead of a bowler, and an all-rounder instead of an all-rounder.
In such a case, the player who comes as a substitute can not only field but also bowl or bat in that half of the match. In this situation, they are criticizing that Rana is not a player comparable to shivam Dubey and that india won by cheating. In this situation, former indian team player sunil gavaskar has attacked the indian team. He has strongly criticized the indian team is winning by engaging in such cheating. Speaking about this, he said that shivam Dubey batted even after the ball hit him on the head in that match. So it is clear that he did not suffer any brain trauma. In that case, it is not right to make a substitute player play in his place.

If he had been injured while batting, a substitute player can be made to play. But that player will only field. He cannot bowl. Even if we assume that a comparable substitute player should be selected, Harshit Rana is not a match for shivam Dubey. There is nothing to say that they are equal.
The indian team is a wonderful team. But there is no need to tarnish its success by doing such bad things, he said.
