What was the mess between the serious-picker curator?
On Tuesday, when Team India’s coaching staff arrived to see the pitch of the Oval, the pitch curator Lee Fortis asked him to move. Gambhir did not like this thing about Fortis and he clashed with him. Gambhir asked him to stay within his limits and the pitch curator threatened him to complain. There was a lot of hot heat between the severe and the pitch curator. After this, all former cricketers stood in support of Gautam Gambhir. Akash Chopra and Irfan Pathan alleged that Oval’s pitch curator did not stop England’s supporting staff from going on the pitch but did this by looking at the Indians which is unfair.
