Hi friends Stewards are stewards but if Sunil Gavaskar refused his honorary membership at the MCC only because of a steward's discourtesy I would rate him below the steward. Not that my rating matters.

I know one example - Sunil Gavaskar refused honorary membership at the MCC because a ground steward once called out to him, "Oi! Where do you think you are going?"
