BCCI has appointed Gautam Gambhir as the head coach of Team India.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has recently appointed former opener Gautam Gambhir as the head coach of Team India. Since then, someone or the other is constantly sharing his opinion about him. In this episode, now Team India’s fast bowler Avesh Khan has made a big statement about Gautam Gambhir. Along with this, he has praised the new head coach a lot.
Gambhir was appointed the new head coach of the Indian team replacing Rahul Dravid earlier this week. He will start his tenure as head coach with the limited overs series against Sri Lanka. Avesh has played for Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL while being Gambhir’s mentor.

Meanwhile, the fast bowler told BCCI ahead of the fourth T20 International against Zimbabwe on Saturday, “What I learned from him is about the mindset that you should always perform better than your opponent and give your 100 percent for the team.
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. In the first match, it was giving good bounce but in the second match it became flat. The conditions are good and because this ground is open, the ball is also swinging a bit.”
