Gautam Gambhir’s record as the main coach of the Indian test
Gambhir was appointed lead coach of the Indian National Cricket team after leaving the legendary Rahul Dravid, who led the team to the T20 World Cup of the ICC 2024.
The expectations were high from Gautam Gambhir when he took care of the work, and the ex-Batsman of Opening has not disappointed with the white ball cricket.
Under his orientation, India has become a force to consider Cricket T20I and after a decent race on the Cricket Hate, India won the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
However, in the test cricket, there has been a massive fall in India’s performance since Gambhir’s Gambhir became the main coach. India won a series of tests against Bangladesh at home at Gambhir’s first task on the Red Ball Cricket team, but since then, they have been fighting.
Team India was whitewashed (0-3) by Team New Zealand at home, hitting a historic minimum, and then lost the Trophy of the Border-Gavaskar 2024-25 after a decade (1-3).
To get worse, India began the five -game series against England with a poor note, losing the workshop of the Testing series in Headingley in Leeds.
Has been losing and losing: Aakash Chopra in Gautam Gambhir
Speaking on his official YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said that the newly appointed Shubman Gill test captain should not be guilty of India’s terror program in the test cricket and that criticism should be headed to Gautam Gambhir, which has been continuously losing.
“This is the beginning of the Indian cricket, and it is true that if it is good, everyone is proud of this. But if it is bad, the critic is absolutely evident. I will have more patience with Shubman Gill because it has just turned into the captain. It will have time to understand -” said Aakash Chopra.
“ There is a lot of pressure on Gautam Gambhir. The pressure is absolutely riding. If we look at his performances in trial cricket and red ball cricket, you will find that he has not won many games. He has won 2 games against Bangladesh and Australia.However, we have lost three against New Zealand, three against Australia and a against England. add
But if the England series does not go too well, there will be a question sign: Aakash Chopra
Aakash Chopra also emphasized that the BCCI selection committee has fulfilled all the demands of Gautam Gambhir, giving -all the players he requested and that the main coach has no excuse. He added that Gambhir should begin to provide results in favor of India; Otherwise, their job could be at risk.
“ His performance in white ball cricket has been good. The team has been playing well. But in the test cricket, I think the questions will be there. And I think there is a lot of pressure on this series. If this series is not good, God does not want it, I hope it goes well. I really want the Indian Cricket to do well. But if the England series is not too good, there will be a brand of questions.
“Where do they go and what do they do? Because the selectors feel that anything that the team is asking, is being given. The type of player you want, the number of players you want and the player you are pointing to is being given. So, if so, you also have to deliver the results. Period. There is no excuse.”
