Following Bishan Singh Bedi's retirement from cricket, a controversial interview appeared in a sports magazine called Sportsworld, in which Bedi singled out Suni Gavaskar as the lynchpin behind his removal.

Sunil Gavaskar denied this claim, naturally. But these two situations were cases of allegations.

But it was fact, that Tiger Pataudi, editor of the magazine apart from being an Indian cricketer, okayed the publishing of such a rift creating article.
