'Whoever this 'Mr. Fix-it' is, he should be named and shamed': Uthappa blasts 'pathetic' personal agenda-driven motive

Hindustan Times  

It has been a turbulent few days for Indian cricket. Ahead of the Sydney Test, a bombshell Indian Express report claimed that a senior player is ready to project himself as an interim captain. The report further claimed that the senior player really wants to be the interim captain and is portraying himself as "Mr Fix-it". Former India batter Robin Uthappa has lashed out at this player, saying if this is true, then the cricketer in question is an "absolute disappointment of a human being." This level of childishness and personal agenda being driven forward at a time when the team needs more unity has to stop," said Uthappa.
