Former Indian skipper Kapil Dev has lashed out against the slow centuries made by senior players.
Pune (Maharashtra), May 28 : Former Indian skipper Kapil Dev has lashed out against the slow centuries made by senior players.
"In our times, if someone got a 100, it was called a great century. But in today's cricket, the way the world is going, if you get a 100 in more than 120 balls and that too against Bangladesh, it is not really anything.
I think the seniors cricketers will have to teach the younger cricketers a lot, how to win the matches rather than playing 200, 300 and 1000 balls to score a century", Kapil Dev said on the sidelines of an Under-15 tournament.
In the second Test, India played against Bangladesh in Dhaka. Skipper Rahul Dravid scored 129 runs off 144 balls, while Sachin Tendulkar needed exactly 200 balls to register his 37th test hundred.
The visitors won the test 1-0. India had already won the one-day series against Bangladesh by 2-0.
Dev was also critical of the Board of Control for Cricket in India for bad management of the affairs of cricket in the country.
