No tears be shed over ICC handing over one Test ban suspension to Gautam Gambhir for his aggressive and uncultured behaviour on the field in the on going third Test at Firozshah Kotla Ground.
It’s a big jolt to a budding cricketer whose cricketing career is about to blossom after having failed miserably in his previous Test appearances in last four seasons.
He had no reason at all to dash off his left elbow on Shane Watsons' chest while completing his second run, an incident which was seen on the television replays distinctly, albeit Aussie all rounder had uttered some nasty things couple of minutes earlier so as to provoke him.
Gambhir's behaviour on Day 2 of Delhi Test is also unpardonable, on the backdrop of another incident involving him with Simon Katich on Day 1. Therefore, all that double ton which he had hit with great gusto would go in vain, though it would be only useful to the cricket statisticians. He has virtually spoiled his name and repute with his abominable behaviour.
One wonder's whether his recent success has gone in his head and he is trying to emulate Bhajji over on the field behaviour.
