The tasteless comment was slammed by fans on Twitter.
The comment was called immature and several people wondered how a 72-year-old can make such statements on live TV.
Here is how fans reacted to Gavaskar’s on-air comment during Rajasthan versus Chennai game:

Sunil Gavaskar is so embarrassing!!!
I don’t want to listen to the “he’s one of the greats of the game, respect him” I am not talking about his cricket, I am talking about his very very embarrassing comments. He needs to know where the line.

“Hetmyer’s wife has delivered, will he deliver for the Royals?”
