The uncertainty over former India captain Sunil Gavaskar attending Tuesday's review committee meeting of the Board of Control for Cricket in India ended after the cricket legend decided to take part in it despite his father's sudden illness and hospitalisation in Pune.
"Gavaskar will be attending the meeting," a source close to Gavaskar, one of the six members of the BCCI review committee, said in Mumbai, on Tuesday.
Among other things, the review committee will discuss the much publicised spat between captain Sourav Ganguly and coach Greg Chappell. The coach's "leaked" e-mail to BCCI President Ranbir Singh Mahendra, in which he has levelled serious charges against Ganguly, would also be taken up for discussion.
Earlier, Gavaskar's attendance in the meeting was uncertain because of his tight schedule as he was to take a flight to Australia late in the evening after visiting his ailing father in Pune, who was hospitalised on Monday.
The source had said Gavaskar would attend the meeting if he succeeds in changing his travel plans and is able to take the flight on Wednesday morning.
Gavaskar is the Chairman of the International Cricket Council's Cricket Committee (Playing) and is also the head of the ICC's selection committee for the Rest of the World XI teams, which would take on Australia in the forthcoming ICC Super Series.
