“Indian Premier League (IPL) is not my cup of tea. Test match is a legacy for me. But we are not interested in preserving our own legacy. It feels sad when our legacy is ruined. IPL is the Vidya Balan of Indian cricket - entertainment, entertainment, entertainment,” he said at the, ‘How contemporary cricket can learn from India's cricketing heritage’ talk show organised by Osian, a firm which plans to hold an auction of cricket memorabilia in the city on September 13. Former players Erapalli Prasanna, Ajit Wadekar and Anshuman Gaekwad were part of the discussion too.
