“Any game that you play, you want the crowd to be there. India has played without any crowds in recent times. Any performer, be it an actor, be it a cricketer, wants to play in front of the crowd. The 100th Test is very very special. Disappointing that there is going to be no crowd, but I think the decision has been taken in the greater interest. The cases have increased in and around Mohali, where the match is going to be played,” Sunil Gavaskar told Sports Today.

IND vs SL LIVE: Kohli’s 100th Test was earlier scheduled to take place at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. However, BCCI decided to play 1st Test at Mohali. The Bengaluru stadium, on the other hand, are allowed to host 40 per cent crowd.
