Gambhir's Coaching: Wins and Epic Cricket Fails

Folks, Gautam Gambhir, head coach of India, took charge in 2024. Major wins? Absolutely! Champions Trophy, Asia Cup—unbeaten! But oh boy, Tests? A total train wreck! Three Test series lost, three ODIs down the drain! New Zealand? A 3-0 humiliation! We need to step it up, folks. It’s time to make cricket great again!
Quick rundown
- Under Gambhir, India’s red-ball fortunes wobbled with 3 Tests and 3 ODIs lost at home.
- But in white-ball, India snatched the Champions Trophy 2025 and the Asia Cup 2025—unbeaten streak intact.
- Away assignments were rough, with Australia taking the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 3-1 and NZ edging the ODI leg 2-1.
- Gambhir’s first assignment (Sri Lanka ODI 2024) hinted at tougher overseas challenges to come.
- Takeaway: India can still win big white-ball titles while ironing out red-ball kinks.
