Mumbai, Jan 9 (IBNS): The Indian cricket board has issued a show cause notice to cricketers Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul and asked for an explanation over their comments on women recently on a chat show, media reports said.

The two young star players were at director-producer-actor Karan Johar's chat show Koffee with Karan.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) asked for an explanation after Pandya took to Twitter to issue an apology.

Pandya tweeted a statement which reads, "After reflecting on my comments on Koffee with Karan, I would like to apologise to everyone concerned who I may have hurt in any way. Honestly, I got a but carried away with the nature of the show. In no way did I mean to disrespect or hurt anyone's sentiments. Respect."

What did Pandya, Rahul say?

When Karan asked Pandya why he doesn't ask for women's names at night clubs, the all-rounder said: "It is so much to talk man, so how can I remember the name also sometimes. It's so loud."

When the host insisted on what does the cricketer talks about, Pandya said: "Its not talking..Its watching and just observing how they move.....I am little from black side so I have to see how they move first...."

Both Pandya and Rahul talked about their sex lives. Rahul shared an experience of how he was caught with a condom by his mother.

Explaining how he is frank with his family, Pandya said: "My family I have been like I am open about everything. When I lost my virginity, I told my parents that aj kar ke aaya (I did it today)." (sic)

"There was a party when my parents were sitting and they were asking tera wala kaun kaun hai (which girls are yours). I actually sat with them and said yeh yeh and yeh (this, this and this girl)...and my parents said wah, wah proud of you beta (son)," Pandya added.

After hearing Pandya, Karan even termed the cricketer's family as "wildest".
