He said, “He speaks very little in team meetings and one-on-one conversations but is very clear about what needs to be done. He puts some challenges in front of you and assigns roles to the players. He has always been a ‘team coach’. He wants to win at all costs and he wants every player to give his 100 percent contribution.” Speaking about the conditions in Harare, Avesh said that he is enjoying bowling here. He has taken six wickets in the three matches played in the current series. He said, “We have played on different wickets here. We played the first two matches on the same wicket.

But the statement given by Gambhir on this may irritate those players who often get injured. In the present times, looking at the way cricket is being played every day, injury management and workload management of the players are often mentioned. However, it is believed that after Gambhir becomes the head coach, some big changes will be seen in Indian cricket, the biggest change of which will be that the players will not get the break they want. Team India has to tour Sri Lanka next month to participate in the ODI and T20 International series and this will be the first assignment of head coach Gautam Gambhir. Gautam Gambhir gave a big statement regarding injury and workload management Just before the start of the Sri Lanka series, Gambhir has clearly said that if a player gets injured, he can recover and make a comeback, but he will not be given breaks repeatedly in the name of injury and workload management. Team India’s new head coach Gautam Gambhir said on Star Sports, ‘Look, I have a strong belief in one thing that if you can play, then you should play in all three formats. I have never believed in injury management, if you get injured, go and recover, it’s as simple as that. When you play international cricket, you should do as much as you can. If you ask any top player, they want to play all three formats. They don’t want the tag of a red ball bowler or a white ball bowler. Injuries are a part of any player’s career, if you play all three formats and get injured, you can go back and recover and come back into the team. You should play all three formats, I don’t believe much in keeping some players just for Tests, that we will manage his injury, we will manage his workload. Look, as a professional cricketer your career is very short, you are playing for your country, so you should play as much as you can. If you are in very good form, then play all three formats.
