The celebrated Indian batsman and then captain Gundappa Vishwanath in a solitary one off cricket test match did something strange. Following the dismissal of England’s wicketkeeper Bob Taylor, he rushed to the umpire and had Taylor call him back to the crease, as he believed he had not taken the catch neatly.
Taylor was involved in a record partnership with Ian Botham which sealed India’s fate in that particular test match. Decades later, the illustrious batsman said in an interview, ‘Do you know I am still jeered for that?’ referring to that decision of recalling Taylor which subsequently cost India the test match and the series.
Vishy is not a solitary example, but his instance is a rare one in the history of any sport. In today’s cricket, digital camera ensures the right verdict, courtesy the third umpire. Yet we find so many batsmen gesticulating their displeasure following their dismissal, or several bowlers appealing repeatedly knowing fully well that the ball must have been missing the leg stump by yards. So much so for cricket. The doping tests in the Olympics, the Asian or the Commonwealth Games provide a routine source of embarrassment for several sportspersons and their countries.
