After the end of T20 World Cup 2024, Rahul Dravid’s journey as the head coach with the Indian cricket team came to an end. So, replacing Dravid, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has appointed former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir as the new head coach of Team India.

After Gambhir’s appointment, there was a lot of rhetoric in the cricket world. Many fans and former cricketers considered Gambhir’s appointment right, while some considered it wrong. On the other hand, now former Indian wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik has made a big statement on Gambhir becoming the new head coach of Team India. Karthik says that Gambhir is a very good leader. It is worth noting that Gambhir and Karthik have played cricket together for Team India for a long time.

Dinesh Karthik gave a big statement

Let us tell you that on Gautam Gambhir becoming the new coach of the Indian cricket team, Dinesh Karthik said as per Cricbuzz- He is a very good leader and I think he will bring two things to the Indian team. One thing is that he is a complete man of his players.

He backs his players, and that is important in international cricket because when performances don’t go your way you can feel lonely and demotivated, but Gambhir won’t let that happen.

Karthik further said- Secondly, he will bring a smart mind to this Indian team. He is a very sharp and fiery person. He always loved to play for the team and did whatever it took to win a game of cricket.

So Gambhir’s journey as head coach with Team India is going to start with India’s tour of Sri Lanka. On this tour, the Indian team will be seen playing a three-match T20 and a three-match ODI series. India’s tour will start from July 27.
