CD Gopinath, the former India batsman, who turns 90 today, does not want the word 'cricket' to be associated with the T20 form of the game. "This Twenty20 does not appeal to me. In fact, a few years ago I was at Lord's and I remember telling some people there, 'for God's sake, don't call it cricket; give it another name.' I understand that today this brings in money and I am not against that," Gopinath told mid-day from Chennai earlier this week.

Gopinath said he is fit and fine and 90. He stopped playing tennis regularly only two to three years ago because he didn't want to stretch things but continues to play bridge at a club everyday whether he is in Chennai or Coonoor.
