Yesterday, Azhar, accompanied by chief selector Dilip Vengsarkar and some top
CAB officials, had casually walked over to the Indian team's dressing room
overlooking the ground, exchanging a round of pleasantries with Murali Kartik
and a few others.
That was when the ICC's Anti-Corruption and
Security Unit officer at the match, former CBI stalwart NS Virk, politely asked
Azhar to step aside and stay away from interacting with the players at the
ground when the match was on.
Granted he is accused of being a part of ‘match fixing’ and from all accounts seemed to have facilitated quiet a few, however, this is in no way to treat him.
The CAB should have ensured that Azhar has been made aware of his limits or the ICC should have been less ham handed in handling the breach.
If you consider him a person-non-grata, then why invite him at all?
