Indian cricket team head coach Gautam Gambhir gave his blunt verdict on the 'handshake' controversy on Day 5 of the fourth Test match between India and England at Old Trafford on Sunday. England skipper Ben Stokes offered to end the match in a draw with 15 overs left on Day 5. However, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar were close to their centuries and India decided to not accept the 'handshake' at that moment. Stokes was not happy but play continued and both Jadeja as well as Sundar was able to slam centuries. Gambhir completely supported the decision to not take the draw at the point and questioned whether England would have left the field if their players were on verge of hundreds.
