Former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar went 30 years back on Saturday and recalled what Vivian Richards told him in a Test match which will be remembered for the Little Master breaking Sir Donald Bradman's then world record for most centuries. The Test match dates back to 1983.

Coming into the Indian tour after losing to India in the World Cup final earlier that year, West Indies had a point to prove. The Caribbeans had already won the ODI series 5-0 and were 3-0 up in the first five Tests by then. Having already lost the series, India had a point to prove in the final game in Chennai.

For Gavaskar, the series has been topsy turvy. Having scored just 0 and 7 in his first two innings in the series, Gavaskar roared back into form with scored of 121, 15 and 90 in his next three innings. However, his scores of 1, 12, 3, 0 and 20 in his next five innings meant, the right-hander needed another big score to shut down critics.
In the sixth Test in Chennai, West Indies rode on Jeff Dujon's 62 to post 313 in the first innings. In reply, India had lost Anshuman Gaekwad and Dilip Vengsarkar, both for ducks, off the bowling of Malcolm Marshall before Gavaskar walked in.

Gavaskar, who is currently on commentating duties in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy, reminisced Richards' famous words on-air when a co-commentator asked him about that Test match.

“So I had to go and stay above a hattrick. I managed to stay above the hattrick when Viv Richards ran past me he said, ‘hey, no matter no matter no matter what number you bat man, the score is still zero’," Gavaskar said. Notably, he didn't open the batting and came at No.4 in that very particular game.
Pakistan cricket legend Wasim Akram lavished praise on Jasprit Bumrah for his stellar performance as India’s stand-in captain on Day 1 of the first Test against Australia in Perth. Akram hailed Bumrah as the "best bowler in the world" after his incredible spell of 4/17, which left Australia reeling at 67/7 at stumps.

India’s batting lineup had a forgettable outing earlier in the day, crumbling to 150 in their first innings. Despite the lack of significant contributions from their batting stars, India’s bowlers retaliated fiercely, with Bumrah leading the charge. Akram, speaking to Star Sports, highlighted Bumrah’s exceptional ability to outthink batters. “Bumrah was at the top of his game, reading the Australian batters brilliantly. His spell was a masterclass in understanding conditions and exploiting weaknesses,” Akram remarked, lauding the Indian skipper for stepping up in a pressure situation.
