It was the 2nd test match of India’s tour of England in 2011 and Harbhajan Singh got a poor LBW decision, Naseer blamed BCCI for not using the service of DRS technology when it is available, this comment of Naseer fired up Ravi in the post match show and he accused ECB and British media of being jealous about Indian success in World Cricket and the IPL. In the next day of the test match both Naseer and Ravi shared the commentary box and Naseer put up his point by saying ESPN pays him to voice his opinion on the game of cricket and he has every right to do this to which Ravi countered and for a while the focus totally shifted from the test match.
