The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is facing the heat after its alleged ‘shameful treatment’ of Zaheer Khan.
"The shameful treatment of Anil Kumble has now been compounded by the cavalier treatment of Zaheer Khan and Rahul Dravid," stated Former Committee of Administrators member Ramachandra Guha on social media .
