As the ICC Champions Trophy 2013 was a global event, there needed to be a mix of commentators and as such, Sunil Gavaskar, Sanjay Manjrekar, Sourav Ganguly and Harsha Bhogle were selected by the host broadcaster as commentators from India for its world feed,&rdquo; an ICC spokesman said. &ldquo;Secondly, the ICC neither picks nor has a wish-list of commentators, as claimed by the newspaper. Furthermore, the ICC doesn&rsquo;t give any guidelines to the commentators who are free to express their views. As has always been the case, the ICC respects the views and comments of all the commentators,&rdquo; he added. u00a0
