Gautam Gambhir Decision Cost India Match : The way the Indian team lost the second match of the ODI series against Sri Lanka has raised many questions.

Especially the team's head coach Gautam Gambhir is being targeted. The kind of decisions he has taken during this series have been very strange and the Indian team has had to bear the brunt of it.

At one time the Indian team was in a much better position and could have won the match but Sri Lanka made a strong comeback and won the match.

We tell you the three reasons why Team India lost against Sri Lanka and Gautam Gambhir played a very important role in this.

Gautam Gambhir made these 3 big mistakes

3. Giving consistent chances to Shivam Dubey instead of Riyan Parag

Gautam Gambhir has played Shivam Dubey as an all-rounder in the first two matches so far and has not given a chance to Riyan Parag. However, Shivam Dubey has not been able to perform well at all. He could not finish the first ODI and got out without opening his account in the second ODI.

If Riyan Parag gets a chance, then perhaps he will perform better than Shivam Dubey.

2. Playing KL Rahul instead of Rishabh Pant

So far, only KL Rahul has got a chance as a wicketkeeper in the first two ODIs against Sri Lanka. Rishabh Pant has not been fielded. Team India has had to bear the brunt of this. KL Rahul had a chance to make India win in both the matches but he was a complete flop. In the second match, he could not even open his account. Rishabh Pant should have got a chance instead of him.

1. Too many changes in the batting order

Gautam Gambhir has made many changes in the batting order in the Sri Lanka series. Washington Sundar is being sent to the top order. KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer are being sent down. Even Shivam Dubey has been promoted but it did not help in the third ODI. In such a situation, these experiments may prove costly for India before the Champions Trophy.
