MUMBAI: Former India opener Gautam Gambhir feels the BCCI should behave like a statesman amid the current crisis and he would have a lot more respect for the richest cricket body if the national team tours Australia later this year.
Gambhir was reacting to BCCI treasurer Arun Dhumal’s statement that if required, the Indian team could go into quarantine upon their arrival Down Under for the scheduled tour in the Australian summer.
However, the need for two weeks quarantine will only arise if the preceding T20 World Cup doesn’t take place in Australia.
“Good on BCCI, fabulous. Good on them. This is a very very positive sign, because I think they are looking at a far bigger picture, that it will change the mood of the entire country as well. “It is not only about winning series in Australia, which is very very important. But it will change the mood of both the countries as well, not only India, but probably for Australia as well,” Gambhir said on a show ‘Cricket Connected’.
