India's in-form opener Gautam Gambhir is set to miss the fourth and final Test against Australia here on Thursday after his appeal against a one-match ban was rejected. The left-hander was suspended by English match referee Chris Broad for "physical contact" with Australian all-rounder Shane Watson while taking a run on the opening day of the third Test in Delhi.
"The Appeals Commissioner (South African judge Albie Sachs) has rejected the appeal and upheld the penalty of one-Test ban imposed by the match referee," Indian cricket board secretary N. Srinivasan said in a statement on Tuesday.
He added the board had refused to accept the decision and had sent its objection to the International Cricket Council. "The said order has been passed without affording the player an opportunity of personal hearing, legal representation and without acceding to his request for certain documents/recordings to be given to him, and also denying him an extension of time," the statement said.
Murali Vijay was named Gambhir's replacement for the match. India lead the series 1-0 following their 320-run win in the second Test in Mohali. The matches in Bangalore and Delhi were drawn.
