The opportunity to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) means a lot of money. And that’s why no one wants to miss the opportunity to play in the Millionaire League.

But if you play for the country, you don’t have a lot of money like the T20 franchise league, so there are allegations against stars like Shakib Al Hasan and Virat Kohli for taking leave on various pretexts when the country’s game comes. And the legendary Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar is very angry about that Kohli, Rohit Sharma do not rest during IPL. So why do they rest during India’s game? – Gavaskar asked.

The former India captain said, “Do not take a holiday in the IPL, why rest to play for the country? Moreover, T20 cricket is a small format. This format is not supposed to affect the mind and body in that way. Tests, ODIs are much harder. So what is the need to rest while playing for your country?”

“I don’t believe in giving rest to cricketers,” said Gavaskar, who retired from cricket to pursue a career in commentary. “No one wants rest during IPL. Then why take a break while playing for the country? The cricket board should think about taking this rest. Grade ‘A’ cricketers get a lot of money. Indian cricketers should be much more professional. If they want to rest, they have to take less money.”
