Former India batsman Jaisimha, who died in 1999, was Gavaskar’s hero and it is fitting that the first lecture, which is part of the ML Jaisimha Sports Foundation, is held in the golden jubilee year of India’s 1971 win in the West Indies. Jaisimha was part of that Ajit Wadekar-led team.
ML Jaisimha is seated to the right of skipper Ajit Wadekar in a group picture of the Indian team which beat the West Indies in 1971. Gavaskar is standing second from left.
Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar delivered the first Dilip Sardesai Memorial Lecture in 2009. Today in Secunderabad, he will deliver the inaugural ML Jaisimha Lecture.
Gavaskar was in Pune on Sunday, commentating on the final India v England ODI.
