“If I have not been used for TOSSES and PRESENTATION for 23 years and newcomers do pitch reports, tosses, and presentations even when Shastri was coaching, what do you think could be the reason?” Laxman Sivaramakrishnan wrote on X.
Recently, high-profile roles at toss and presentations during major BCCI matches have gone to figures like Ravi Shastri and Harsha Bhogle, while other commentators have taken on similar duties in other games. He feels frustrated about being overlooked for these roles for a long time.
