After an ICC enquiry, he was found not guilty, but was punished for failing to report the approach. His domestic comeback was witnessed when he prepared the pitch for the Chennai Super Kings v Mumbai Indians game in the last Indian Premier League edition.
The tall personality was seen at the centre of the ground right from the morning, giving instructions to his groundsmen. When the West Indies team arrived at the venue at around 1.30 pm yesterday, Salgaonkar was seen arranging their net practice.
"It looks like he is enjoying his work thoroughly. It's a great relief for Pandu. He was not at fault at all," Naik said referring to the sting operation. "It is never easy to make a successful comeback, but Pandu is doing what he wants to do which is very good to see," added Naik.
