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.”
