Sanjay Manjrekar says Its about Indian cricket not who the Coach: After Rahul Dravid, the Indian cricket team has got a new head coach in the form of Gautam Gambhir. There was a lot of talk before Gautam Gambhir became the coach. Fans had praised the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for appointing Gautam Gambhir as the next head coach. Rahul Dravid’s tenure as head coach before Gambhir ended after the 2024 T20 World Cup. Now former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar’s social media post about the coaches of Team India is in discussion.
Now in the background of all these accolades, the former legendary batsman of the Indian cricket team Sanjay Manjrekar was seen getting angry. Manjrekar said that this statement is not only about coaches but about Indian cricket. Who has four World Cups to his name. Sanjay Manjrekar’s statement came when Gautam Gambhir took charge as the head coach after Rahul Dravid’s tenure .
Sanjay Manjrekar’s tweet goes viral on social media –
Sanjay Manjrekar wrote in his post, ‘Weren’t Lalchand Rajput, Gary Kirsten and Dravid coaches? This is the coach. Who led India to win the World Cup in 1983, 2007, 2011 and 2023. It’s about real Indian cricket, not about who the coach is. So it is time to stop thinking that there is a direct connection between the two.’
Gautam Gambhir’s tenure begins with Sri Lanka tour –
After the T20 World Cup, Team India toured Zimbabwe for a five-match T20 series. At that time, the head of the National Cricket Academy, VVS Laxman, had gone as the head coach of Team India on the Zimbabwe tour. Now Gautam Gambhir will start his tenure as head coach from Sri Lanka tour. Along with the head coach, the captain of the Indian T20 team has also been changed. Now Suryakumar Yadav is the captain of the Indian T20 team.
