Sending Gibbs to India a big mistake: Bacher

Durban : Former South African cricket chief Dr Ali Bacher has said it was a big mistake to send Herschelle Gibbs to India for questioning by the Indian police six years after the scandal broke out in 2000.

``I am not so certain that I would have taken such a risk. Why should we open old wounds, particularly during a world cricket championship,'' the veteran cricket administrator said. Bacher was referring to the interrogation of Gibbs by Delhi Police.

Bacher was speaking to the Star newspaper in Johannesburg. — PTI
