Gavaskar regrets controversial remarks on Shane Warne: It wasn't the right time

"Last week was a very traumatic time for cricket fraternity as in 24 hours, we lost two icons of the game -- Rodney Marsh and Shane Warne. On TV, I was asked by an anchor whether Warne was the greatest spinner and I gave my honest opinion," said Gavaskar in a video posted on his Instagram account

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar on Monday said he regrets the comments made by him last week after legendary spinner Shane Warne passed away.

Warne had passed away on Friday aged 52 due to a suspected heart attack. During an interview with a TV channel, Gavaskar had condoled the demise of Warne, but he went on to say that he does not consider the Australian as the best spinner to play the game.
