‘Sending Gibbs to India a mistake’
JOHANNESBURG, Oct 14: Ali Bacher, the former managing director of the South Africa’s United Cricket Board, has said that it was a big mistake sending Herschelle Gibbs to India for the Indian police to question him on his involvement in the match-fixing scandal which broke six years ago.
"I am not so certain that I would have taken such a risk," Bacher told Star. "Why should we open old wounds, particularly during a world cricket championship?"
Bacher remained aggressive in his stance: "I have interacted with the Indian media for 15 years and you can be assured they will not back off on this issue until the South African team departs for home". —Agencies
