Ajay Jadeja Says 'Pitch Is Like Marriage'. Sunil Gavaskar Replies: "What's The Result..."

Former India all-rounder Ajay Jadeja was in the news for all the wrong reasons after he compared the cricket pitches to wives. Jadeja had made the remarks while speaking on Ten Sports' show "Dressing Room", leaving the anchor and his fellow panelists Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Nikhil Chopra in splits. However, Jadeja was criticised by fans for his remarks on-air. "Yaha pe saare shaadi shuda hai. Toh pitch report waise hi hai. Aap dekhte ek cheez hai. Jab aap khelna shuru karte ho toh pata chalta hai (Everyone here is married. So the pitch report is like that only. You see one thing but you only get to know when you start playing)," said Jadeja.

While explaining about the pitch, we started discussing how a hover cover is similar to the relatives going to set up an arrange marriage. You get married after one inspection. It's the case for both men and women. That day we jokingly explained it terms of women but you can say for the husband as well."

However, Gavaskar was left amused by the explanation and he decided to come up with a witty remark of his own.

"There are results after the five day Test. What are the results you are talking about in this case? Is it a tie?" Gavaskar quipped.
