Senior Associate Editor Bikash Mohapatra takes a look at Indian players who, despite their unquestionable talent, have not quite lived up to expectations.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot called Sachin Pilot a gaddar (traitor) on Thursday and said he cannot replace him as he had revolted against the Congress in 2020 and tried to topple his own government.

"We are expecting that he will take over as Congress president in 2015," he said.
