Kapil-Gavaskar VS Akhtar
Afridi was taking a dig at Gambhir while promoting his book and they started battling out in social media. In the situation with Akhtar he is having a youtube channel and he suggested a India Pakistan series and Kapil and Gavaskar jumped on it and he now has more contents to release in his channel

Gayle VS Sarwan
Gayle has nothing to complain he is more successful than Sarwan but he also need to be in the news to earn money when he is not playing.
I thought it was unwarranted to publicly come out rather than settling inside closed doors if they had an issue with each other.
Cricket is no more a gentleman's game.
To be frank cricket was never a gentleman's game and i have seen many claiming this here and hence thought of responding now. Historically it was played by the rich and it has a feudalistic history, the same with golf as you need huge property to play the game and when international cricket started it was always a battle for supremacy for centuries and now it is the battle of economics.
The word gentleman game has its roots here
List of Gentlemen v Players matches ironically gentleman won the first two matches and the term might have stuck after that.
I really do not understand why everyone is crying about gentleman's game, every sport is supposed to be played according to the rule book and what is special about these phrase

As i mentioned above it is nothing but history. Hope this clears everything.
