Former Australian cricket player Brad Haddin has returned to the legendary Indian cricket player Sunil Gavaskar for criticizing Overseas Cricketers for giving opinions about Indian selections, most recently on the Asia Cup 2025 team.
Sunil Gavaskar recently wondered why former overseas stars had an opinion about the India’s Asia Cup 2025 team instead of concentrating on issues in their own countries.
The remarks of the former Indian captain came after several former cricketers from Australia, South Africa and England shared their opinion about some of the courageous calls of India for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025, especially the exclusion of SHREYAS Iyer from the 15-person team.

I am happy to listen to the show: Brad Haddin fires back in Sunil Gavaskar
The commentator repeated that his surprise was not intended to discredit the players who made the Asia Cup 2025 team, but rather to emphasize the value of Iyer. He said how Iyer impressed him during the IPL 2025, not only with his batting, but also with his leadership qualities under pressure, so he still thought that the PBKS skipper in the Asia Cup 2025 team should have been picked.
Brad Haddin said on the Listnr Sport YouTube channel: “I am glad he is listening to the show. We are going worldwide. It is our job to give an opinion about what is current in World Cricket. That is what we do. We coached him (Iyer) in the IPL, and I am in my opinion.”
The Aussie coach Brad Haddin added further: “I was shocked that he was not in the team, and I am not saying that the other players (selected) should not be there. The reason I say that is because of the way he treated our group; he was a great leader, and the way he played under pressure, they are clearly well.”
