Sunil Gavaskar was commentating with former West Indies fast bowler Ian Bishop. During this time, he started making fun of West Indies wicketkeeper Tevin. Gavaskar asked Bishop, 'Bishop, I want to ask whether Tevin is a strange name in West Indies.
Tevin Imlach, hahahahaha. The people who named this player were not idiots. Maybe they didn't want to name him Kevin.At least now can we sack him from commentary duty? Man literally insulted an opposition player and mocked him https://t.co/JPAQwslDFx

Ruckus over Gavaskar's words
Sunil Gavaskar said this jokingly but this issue has become big on social media. Fans are seeing this as a direct way of making fun of the opposing player. Many people even demanded the removal of Sunil Gavaskar from the commentary panel.
Questions were also raised on West Indies bowlers
Sunil Gavaskar also raised questions on the West Indies bowlers. Sunil Gavaskar asked Ian Bishop in the live commentary why West Indies fast bowlers are not using bouncer balls with the new ball. The bishop did not answer this question.
After some time Bishop said that it is possible that you may see these balls from the seals further. This is not the first time that Gavaskar has made such comments during the match. He had also made some comments on Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, on which there was a lot of uproar.
