“Nobody is bigger than the game and the team”- Sanjay Manjrekar’s post about Gautam Gambhir went viral like fire
After Rahul Dravid, Gautam Gambhir has become the head coach of Team India. Sanjay Manjrekar and Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: Getty Images) Gautam Gambhir will start his tenure with Team India as head coach from today (July 27). With the end of the T20 World Cup 2024, Rahul Dravid’s tenure as head coach also ended. After this, Gautam Gambhir was appointed the next head coach of Team India and under him, Team India is currently on a tour of Sri Lanka. On this tour of Sri Lanka, Team India will play three-match ODI and Test series. Before the start of this series, former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has made a surprising tweet about Gautam Gambhir. In fact, ever since Gautam Gambhir became the head coach of Team India, there has been such statements in the media that Team India has not got a bigger coach than Gambhir till date. However, Manjrekar does not seem to agree with this. He says that no coach or player can be bigger than the team. This tweet of Sanjay Manjrekar rapidly went viral on social media Sanjay Manjrekar posted a tweet, “No coach, Lalchand Rajput, Gary Kirsten and Rahul Dravid. Coaches were there when India won the World Cup in 1983, 2007, 2011 and 2024. It’s really about Indian cricket, not who the coach is. It’s time we stop thinking there is a direct connection between the two.” No coach, Lalchand Rajput, Gary Kirsten & Dravid. Coaches when India won WCs in 1983, 2007, 2011 & 2023. It’s really about Indian cricket, not who the coach is. Time we stop thinking there is a direct correlation. — Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) July 27, 2024 When the Indian team led by Kapil Dev won the World Cup in 1983 by defeating the two-time defending champion West Indies, the team did not have a head coach at that time. Whereas, when Team India became the champion of the T20 World Cup in 2007, Lalchand Rajput was the director of the team, because Greg Chappell was removed 6 months ago after the poor performance in the ODI World Cup. However, during the 2011 ODI World Cup, the head coach of the winning team was Gary Kirsten. This was the first time that Team India won the World Cup and a head coach was present with the team. After this, now it has happened in 2024 that the head coach was with the team and the team became the world champion. This is the reason why Gautam Gambhir has a big responsibility on his shoulders, because in the coming time India has to win many ICC tournaments.

In such a situation, it is not clear whether the captain of Rajasthan Royals will be included in Team India’s playing eleven or not. It is very unfortunate that Samson made his T20 debut for India in 2015 at the age of only 20. In the last 9 years, he has been able to play only 28 matches for Team India. Now it remains to be seen how many opportunities Sanju Samson gets on this tour of Sri Lanka. The first T20 match of the series between India and Sri Lanka will be played on 27 July.

‘So I will use my full potential now’, Suryakumar made a funny comment on a statement made by Gambhir
The first match of the T20 series will be played between India and Sri Lanka today Suryakumar Yadav and Gautam Gambhir (Image Credit- X) The three-match T20 series between India and Sri Lanka is starting from today. Suryakumar Yadav will captain the Indian team and Shubman Gill will be the vice-captain of the team. Gautam Gambhir is going to start his tenure as the head coach from the Sri Lanka tour. In this way Surya and coach Gambhir will start a new phase together. Let us tell you that Suryakumar Yadav has played for Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL under the captaincy of Gambhir. During a recent discussion, Gautam Gambhir talked about the ideal role of a leader and also spoke about his seven-year tenure as KKR captain. Gambhir lamented that neither he nor the team fully utilized Suryakumar Yadav’s potential during his tenure with the franchise. Gambhir told Sportskeeda, the role of a leader is to identify the best potential and showcase it to the world. If I have any regret in my seven years of captaincy, it is that I and we as a team never managed to make the best use of Suryakumar Yadav. The reason for this was the combination. Suryakumar gave a funny answer in the press conference During the pre-match press conference on the eve of today’s T20 match, Surya, while discussing his deep relationship with Gambhir, jokingly responded to Gambhir’s previous comments. He said that there is nothing to worry about, as now the potential will be fully utilized and stressed that no laxity will be tolerated in this. “So, I will utilise my full potential now,” Suryakumar said smilingly, as quoted by NDTV Sports. Suryakumar further said in the conversation, the same train will move forward, only the engine has changed, while the bogies will remain unchanged. Nothing has changed, it is the same brand of cricket. This (captaincy role) does not change anything. It has given me an additional responsibility. It is good that now I can negotiate.
