Oval pitch curator Lee Fortis is turning out to be a nightmare for the Indians associated in the ongoing Test series against England. After his ugly spat with team India head coach Gautam Gambhir on Tuesday and the Indian players on Wednesday, Fortis once again made the headlines when the Englishman confronted former India cricketer Deep Dasgupta, who is working as a commentator during the India vs England series.
Fortis has been making headlines for his double standards. He first asked Gambhir and his staff to stay away from the main pitch. The next day Fortis was seen having a laugh with the England players and backroom support on the pitch side. On the eve of the game, Fortis once again came back during the Indian training session, trying to disrupt the visitor's build-up for the final game of the series.
On Thursday, Fortis confronted Dasgupta who was getting ready for the pitch report for the broadcasters before the start of the match. Visiting the pitch side has become a challenge for the Indians with Fortis constantly keeping an eye.
“I went up to the pitch and also stood on the pitch side too. He (Lee) made an eye contact with me once. Whatever happened between us, I think he's has already got his medicine,” Dasgupta said in a video posted by Star Sports.
