“I am not feeling any pressure…”, Gautam Gambhir said about the criticism before the start of BGT.
According to reports, if India does not perform well in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, then Gautam Gambhir’s position may be in danger. Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: Gautam Gambhir’s tenure as the head coach of the Indian cricket team had started on a grand note. The team won the three-match T20 series against Sri Lanka 3-0. But after this the team had to face a shameful 3-0 defeat in the ODI series. Sri Lanka had created history by defeating India in the ODI series at home after 27 years. India recently suffered a 3-0 defeat in the Test series against New Zealand. The team has been clean-swept at home by any team after 12 years. Due to the shameful performance of Team India, head coach Gautam Gambhir is facing a lot of criticism. According to recent reports, if India does not perform well in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Gambhir’s position could be in danger. Meanwhile, Gambhir says that the claims going on on social media are making any difference to him. It’s an honor to coach India- Gautam Gambhir Gautam Gambhir says that he knew that taking over the charge of Indian head coach was going to be a difficult task. He is not feeling any pressure at all regarding the recent performance of Team India. The head coach also has a lot of confidence in senior players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Let us tell you, the performance of both the star players in the Test series against New Zealand was poor. Gambhir said that he will continue to achieve great achievements for the country. While speaking at the press conference before leaving for Australia tour, Gautam Gambhir said, “What difference does social media make to my life and anyone else’s? When I took this job, I always knew it was going to be a very difficult job and also a very prestigious job. I don’t think I feel pressured because my job is to be completely honest. There are some incredibly strong people in that dressing room who have achieved some great achievements for the country and will continue to achieve some great achievements for the country. So, it is an honor to coach him and India.”
Captain Rohit Sharma came to the defense of head coach Gambhir who is facing criticism, said- he needs more time…

Since then, head coach Gautam Gambhir has been the target of fans on social media. Let us tell you that during the entire series, the performance of the team led by Rohit Sharma with the bat was very poor. They could never put pressure on the visiting team. Kane Williamson and Tim Southee were not with the Kiwi team, yet they whitewashed India 3-0 for the first time in a Test series in India. This was India’s second whitewash defeat under the leadership of Gautam Gambhir. Earlier, Sri Lanka had whitewashed India 3-0 in the ODI series. Therefore, questions are being raised on coach Gambhir whether he is suitable or not. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma was seen defending coach Gambhir and said that the coaching unit is very new and it is the responsibility of the players to help them settle in well. Captain Rohit Sharma defended head coach Gautam Gambhir Rohit said in the press conference after India’s 25-run defeat in the third Test in Mumbai, they (coaching staff) have been good. He hasn’t got much time. It is the responsibility of the players to also help them get results, to ensure that we are in touch with their thought process. It is too early to judge anything right now. Rohit is still not sure about his availability for the first Test against Australia in Perth. He had informed BCCI a few months ago about the possibility of dropping the first match. Hence, India have included Abhimanyu Easwaran as a back-up opener and he is expected to partner with Yashasvi Jaiswal in Rohit’s absence. Rohit said that he is still unsure about his availability.
“Social media does not decide the playing eleven” – Gautam Gambhir said on the criticism of KL Rahul
KL Rahul was a flop in the Bengaluru test match against New Zealand. KL Rahul (Photo Source: Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir has given a big statement before the Pune Test match. He has said that what will be the playing XI of the team for a match is decided by the team management. Playing eleven is not made on social media. Gambhir has also said that KL Rahul had played a good innings in Kanpur and the team management will continue to support him. However, Gautam Gambhir has not told that if Shubman Gill returns in the Pune Test match, will Sarfaraz Khan sit out or will KL Rahul be dropped for one match. Gautam Gambhir told the press conference before the second Test match to be played in Pune, “Social media does not decide the playing eleven. It is not important what social media or experts think, it is important what the team management thinks. He played a good innings on the difficult pitch of Kanpur. Yes, he would like to score big runs and this team management wants to support him.” It is clear from these statements of Gambhir that he wants KL Rahul to get a chance in some more matches also. If he does not score runs in these matches then he can be dropped further. KL Rahul was a flop in the first test against New Zealand

He also said that there are many factors behind this defeat and the players failed to perform the role given to them well. Mohammad Rizwan further said, ‘All the players are very disappointed with their performance. There are many reasons behind this defeat.

He has faced defeat in three consecutive matches. Along with this, Hardik Pandya has also had to face a lot of criticism.

Meanwhile, former England captain Michael Vaughan expressed surprise at Indian fans booing Pandya, which is a rare incident in the history of Indian cricket. Michael Vaughan said that I have never heard the Indian audience speaking ill of anyone. I heard this boo when he played against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad. He left Gujarat and came to Mumbai. He brought GT the title. So I don’t think this is right. I am surprised by this – Michael Vaughan On Hardik being booed by the home crowd too, he said, but going to Hyderabad and being that evil, then coming to Wankhede and getting booed by the Mumbai Indians fans, even though he is playing for Mumbai only. I am surprised by this. I have never seen an Indian crowd booing one of their own. Appears on podcast with Vaughn adam gilchrist cited the immense popularity of Rohit Sharma as a possible reason behind this misbehavior towards Pandya. Gilchrist replied that, it shows what is the situation of Rohit Sharma there. Everyone was surprised by Mumbai bringing Hardik Pandya from Gujarat and then Rohit Sharma leaving the captaincy. This is strange. But this is common in IPL. The feeling that there is among the fans about Rohit Sharma is difficult to replicate anywhere else. I know how Hardik feels- Gilchrist Gilchrist gave the example of an incident when he made his ODI debut and was booed by the fans when he replaced Ian Healy. He said, I was also criticized on the field. So I know how Hardik feels, I will just go to Hardik, and I will grab him. To this, Vaughn immediately responded with a joke, “Gillie, maybe you are the one who messages Hardik and says, ‘Look, buddy, I’m there, do you want to come on the podcast and we can discuss this?’ Are. The former Australian wicketkeeper looked ready to help the MI captain during this difficult time. He said, I am Boo Whisper. I know how to get into their mind and how to bring them out of it.

‘My average is 60’ Steve Smith’s big statement came out after criticism of the opening spot in Test cricket
I have opened the batting against the new ball many times. Steve Smith (Photo Source: Twitter) Ever since former Australian cricket team captain Steve Smith has been seen in a new role in Test cricket, he has been the constant target of critics. Smith has been promoted to Test cricket after David Warner retired from red ball cricket. Now in this format he is seen opening instead of middle order. Whereas Steve Smith has to face a lot of criticism after his average performance in Adelaide and Brisbane test matches against West Indies. However, Smith answered his critics to some extent by scoring 91* in the second innings of the second Test match. On the other hand, opening for Steve Smith, who has scored nearly 16,000 runs in international cricket, in Test cricket remains a point of doubt. So now amidst all the criticism, Steve Smith has given a big statement giving a befitting reply to the critics. Smith has said that his average while opening in Tests is 60. Steve Smith silenced his critics Let us tell you that regarding his opening batting in Test cricket, Steve Smith was quoted by Sydney Morning Herald as saying – There was a lot of talk about me when I failed in two or three innings. I was not out once and was out on low score twice. A lot of comments were seen on this. Smith further said- My average as a Test opener batsman is 60. I haven’t really read about it. It’s just a batting position, and I have come in many times and batted in the opening against the new ball. I’ve thought about what different things we could do.
