Mohammad Azharuddin Vists Ailing Navjot Singh Sidhu In Hospital

Darpan News Desk IANS, 09 Oct, 2015 04:56 PM
    Former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin paid Navjot Singh Sidhu a surprise visit at the Indraprastha Apollo Hospital where he is being treated in a Delhi hospital for Deep Vein Thrombosis.
     
    Sidhu posted on Twitter about Azhar’s visit and wrote, “Old Gold, Old Wine, Old Friends – Still the Best!”
     
    The duo had a dramatic fall-out during the 1996 tour of England. What prompted Sidhu to quit the England tour in 1996 is not clearly known.
     
    Late BCCI secretary Jaywant Lele wrote in in his autobiography -- I was There, Memoirs of a Cricket Administrator -- that Sidhu walked out because "he felt he was constantly abused by Azharuddin."
