Former Team India opener Virender Sehwag has questioned the BCCI’s double standards. Recently, LSG spinner Digvesh Rathi was handed a one-match ban. After dismissing Abhishek Sharma, he celebrated in a unique manner, which led to a heated exchange between the two players on the field. As a result, the BCCI suspended Digvesh for one match.
Now, Sehwag has sarcastically commented on the matter, saying that BCCI should also ban Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni. Watch a video for more details.
He gave examples to support his point. Kohli has had several on-field altercations with umpires. In addition, Dhoni once walked straight from the dugout onto the field in the middle of a match to argue with the umpires. Yet, BCCI did not suspend either of them even once.
Sehwag said, Digvesh could have been let off with a warning, especially considering he is a young player who just made his debut this year. He could have been shown some leniency.
