Sunil Gavaskar questions Abhishek Nair’s role in the team Sunil Gavaskar and Gautam Gambhir Gautam Gambhir’s debut as the head coach of the Indian cricket team has been disappointing.

What is the role of Abhishek Nair in the team?- Sunil Gavaskar Gavaskar told India Today, Gautam Gambhir’s honeymoon period is over. We can forgive the mistakes made during this period, but now we want him to come forward and properly guide the players on the Australia tour. The veteran player questioned the role of Abhishek Nair in the team. He said, for batting…what is the role of Abhishek Nair in the team? Is he a batting coach or an assistant coach? He said, Gambhir has scored a lot more runs than these two, so if he can come forward and guide the players on how to bat in Australian conditions and what kind of approach they should adopt, then we can probably do better. Are. Let us tell you that the Indian team will tour Australia in November for a five-match Test series. The first test match will start in Perth from 22 November. After this, the upcoming matches will be played in Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
‘Rahul Dravid’s mind is better than Gautam Gambhir’, former Pakistani cricketer raised questions on the Indian head coach.
Recently India lost the test series against New Zealand by 0-3. Gautam Gambhir (Pic Source-X) After Rahul Dravid stepped down from the post, Gautam Gambhir has become the head of the Indian team and under his leadership, Team India has suffered two major historic defeats. Recently, India lost the Test series against New Zealand 0-3, after which many questions have been raised regarding Gambhir’s coaching. However, Rohit Sharma has defended him. Meanwhile, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has called Rahul Dravid a better coach than Gautam Gambhir. Basit said that Rahul Dravid was a smart coach who knew what kind of pitch India needed to prepare to win on home soil. In the video shared on his YouTube channel, Basit Ali said that Rahul Dravid’s mind is better than Gautam Gambhir. Dravid made pitches for four days where the ball took turn in the last few days. Now you are making such pitches, where even a person who is not a regular spinner is getting a lot from the first day. Dravid knew the psychology of players – Basit Ali Basit Ali also said that Rahul Dravid was a good coach. He knew the psychology of the players. If you ask Virat Kohli to play T10 and T20 in Test cricket, then it is not fair in any way. Let us tell you that Gambhir’s tenure as India’s head coach has had a disappointing start. Under his leadership, the Indian team lost its bilateral series against Sri Lanka in 27 years. After the New Zealand series, Team India will now tour Australia for the Border-Gavaskar series in November. India needs to win this series 4-0 to make it to the World Test Championship final.

IND vs NZ: Manoj Tiwari is unhappy with the performance of Team India in the Bengaluru Test, gave a surprising statement about Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir
In the first Test match played between Team India and New Zealand, the host had to face defeat. Gautam Gambhir & Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: Getty Images) In the first Test match played between Team India and New Zealand, the host had to face defeat. The players of Team India had failed to show good performance and that is why New Zealand won this match. After the end of the match, former player Manoj Tiwari has questioned the decisions of captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir. According to him, Team India did not take important decisions in the first test and that is why they had to face defeat. Manoj Tiwari told Cricbuzz, ‘Sometimes I cannot understand the decisions. There seems to be a lack of common sense. It is beyond my understanding what the coach and the captain are trying to prove. I think whenever a new coach or captain comes, he tries to prove something and takes such decisions. I don’t understand why Team India did not use Ravichandran Ashwin properly: Manoj Tiwari Former player Manoj Tiwari has also raised questions as to why experienced spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who has taken more than 500 Test wickets, was not given the bowling during New Zealand’s second innings. Let us tell you that New Zealand needed 107 runs to win the first test. Ravichandran Ashwin came to bowl when New Zealand had scored 97 runs losing two wickets and the experienced player bowled only two overs in the second innings. Manoj Tiwari further said, ‘I knew that some spinner would get less overs but I did not think that it would be Ashwin. Ravichandran Ashwin has taken more than 500 Test wickets and when you are defending 107 runs, you need an aggressive bowler along with Jasprit Bumrah. Even good captains make mistakes because there is too much going on in your mind. There is a lot of need for a coach here but I don’t know why the mistake was made here that Ashwin was not given bowling. Another thing which was surprising was that Akash Deep was not included in the playing XI. Even good captains make mistakes because they have a lot going on in their mind. At present, Team India will have to make a strong comeback in the second test and both the coach and the captain will have to take many important decisions.

“He is fit, he will do wicketkeeping tomorrow” – Head coach Gambhir gave a big update on Pant’s fitness.
Rishabh Pant (Pic Source-X) The second match of the three-match Test series between India and New Zealand will be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune from October 24. Before this test match, Indian fans are worried about the fitness of Rishabh Pant. At this time, fans want to know whether Pant is fit for the second test match or not. Gautam Gambhir has given an update regarding this. India head coach Gautam Gambhir, during the press conference before the second match against New Zealand, criticized the media for questioning KL Rahul’s place in the team and also confirmed the availability of Rishabh Pant for the Pune Test. Gambhir confirmed that Rishabh Pant will do wicketkeeping in the Pune Test. Gautam Gambhir gave a big update on Rishabh Pant’s fitness. Actually, Pant was injured during New Zealand’s first innings in the Bengaluru Test, due to which Dhruv Jurel had to keep wickets in his place. He had to leave the field in a lot of pain. Now Gambhir told whether Pant will do wicketkeeping in the Pune Test or not. Gambhir gave good news about Pant in the press conference before the Pune Test. Gambhir says that Pant is completely fine. He said, “He is absolutely fine, he will do wicketkeeping tomorrow.” During the Bengaluru Test, Pant suffered an injury to the same knee which had undergone surgery after the car accident. On the second day of the match, Pant limped off the field after being hit by a ball on his knee and then did not keep wickets in the remaining game. Although he played an innings of 99 runs with the bat. During the press conference, Gautam Gambhir said, “Social media does not decide how to play X1, it is not important what people or experts think on social media, it is important what the team management thinks. He played a good innings on the difficult pitch of Kanpur. He would like to score big runs. This team management is looking to support him.”
IND vs NZ: Dinesh Karthik spoke big about Gautam Gambhir’s strategy in the Bengaluru Test, know what he said?
In this test match, India’s first innings was reduced to just 46 runs. Dinesh Karthik and Gautam Gambhir (Image Credit- Twitter In the absence of Shubman Gill, India had to make some changes in its batting order in the ongoing first Test against New Zealand at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. In the match, it was decided to send experienced batsman Virat Kohli at number 3 and Sarfaraz Khan, who replaced Gill, at number 4. However, this strategy of captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir could not show anything special. Kohli was out without scoring any runs in 9 balls in the first innings of the Bengaluru Test match. On the other hand, former wicketkeeper batsman and Dinesh Karthik, who played with Kohli in RCB, has given a big statement regarding this decision of the Indian management. Dinesh Karthik gave a big statement Let us tell you that Dinesh Karthik was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz – I am not defending Virat Kohli, he has the temperament and technique like some of the great batsmen who have played so far. If I make any changes it is because I am confident that that player will perform well there, not because I want to save Virat Kohli. He plays at number 4 in Tests. He opens 3 times in every ODI and T20 match. Now you can say the ball is different, it is not rotating as much, 100 per cent, where is the best position for Virat Kohli in Test cricket, he is just number four. Virat Kohli is also commendable. He could have easily said, no, let me bat at number four, because you can keep KL Rahul or Sarfaraz Khan at number three. The coach would have said, OK, I will manage that conversation. The fact that he went to bat at number 3 shows his (serious) mindset.
“The captain and coach asked me to play red ball cricket…”- Sanju Samson’s big revelation
Sanju Samson & Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: Sanju Samson revealed that Team India’s leadership group has asked him to play more Ranji Trophy matches as they are looking to try him in the Test format. Samson, who made his white-ball debut for India in 2015, has not played a single Test yet. Samson scored 3819 runs in 64 first class matches at an average of 38.96, which included 11 centuries. Samson recently attracted the attention of fans and selectors by scoring a century in the Duleep Trophy match. A few days ago, Sanju Samson scored a century in 40 balls in a T20 International match and saved his sinking T20 career. He has played T20 and ODI cricket for India. After performing well on a few occasions for the ODI and T20 team, Sanju Samson is now eyeing to play Test cricket. Before Duleep Trophy 2024, the leadership group of Team India has told him that he should play as many first class matches as possible. The leadership group includes captain Rohit Sharma and coach Gautam Gambhir. I have the skills to be successful in red ball cricket- Sanju Samson Speaking to Sportstar, Samson said, “I believe I have the skills to be successful in red ball cricket and I don’t want to limit myself to just white ball cricket. My desire is to play test cricket for India. Before the Duleep Trophy, the leadership group had told me that they were considering me for red-ball cricket and asked me to take it seriously and play as many Ranji Trophy matches as possible.” Samson further said about this, “This time my preparation was good. After the series against Sri Lanka, I trained with Rahul Dravid sir and Zubin Bharucha at the RR Academy and worked on my game. The century in the Duleep Trophy has given me a lot of confidence because it came against some of the best bowlers in the country.” Samson has scored centuries for India in ODI and T20 International cricket. At present, Rishabh Pant is with the team as a wicketkeeper batsman, but now Sanju Samson can also be considered in the future. He has consistently performed well in the IPL but has not been able to capitalize on his opportunities in international cricket.
