Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali suggested that there has been a lot of politics in Indian cricket, with the Mumbai lobby using their power to promote their players.

Former Australia captain Aaron Finch mocked England skipper Jos Buttler's apparent jab at the toss during the fifth T20I against India, where he named all of the players on the bench as 'impact subs'.

Kevin Pietersen believes the result of the T20I series between India and England might have been different, had the concussion sub controversy not happened.
