Sack Gautam Gambhir. Sack Morne Morkel. Sack Abhishek Nayar and sack T. Dilip as well. The post-mortem has already been done for Rohit Sharma, he scored nothing, he was selfish, he manipulated his own batting positions.
At least, even if it was a PR drive, he came on Star Sports and satid he was not yet done.
Above all, he has thrown the gauntlet to the BCCI bosses, pick me or drop me. The second 'failure,' as per lakhs of trolls, Virat Kohli should be banished. Go, do it. Remove all the failures from the team. But, first, sack the coaching staff. They failed in too.
A head coach who lost an ODI series in Sri Lanka, a head coach who watched India lose to New Zealand in a Test series at home, and a head coach who has had a terrible interface with the players has ensured India were decimated in the BGT Series.
It is the BCCI selection committee and the bosses who will decide on the players. But if there is a mid-term performance appraisal for Gambhir he gets a zero. See what happened to our jewel, Jasprit Bumrah. No workload management, back gone. We don't have full details on his medical scan (MRI), but even if Bumrah wanted to play all five Tests, he threw in 100 percent.
He led in two Tests as well, before his back packed up. Gambhir had no workload management plan. What was Morne Morkel doing with the bowlers? And what about the batting failures at the top? What did Abhishek Nayar do at nets?
When the BCCI meets to pick the team for the Champions Trophy, dissect Gambhir's performance. He has been a terrible man manager, he has not interacted with the players, young and old, with maturity. Obviously, Gambhir did not stand up like his predecessor Rahul Dravid or Ravi Shastri.
His communication with players was awful as well is what one hears.
Now it is certain, that Ravichandran Ashwin retired and walked out of the series, not because of Rohit Sharma. The man responsible for Ashwin flying away, hurt, and in emotional trauma, is Gautam Gambhir. Imagine, he wrecked a legend.Last part, he did not tell the truth when 'Dressing Room Leaks' happened. Why was Gambhir not able to keep the flock together? And all his bravado talk was crap. He has never been a coach, for he has no degree or diplomas. He may have been a mentor at KKR in IPL 2024.
However, if you have seen memes on Shreyas Iyer that he led and not GG, now that's the truth.
Gambhir's job is like a CEO in a blue-chip company. When the company does badly, the CEO is fired, and the managers are below him. So, here, the managers are his assistant coaches. None of them came through a system.
If we need the dressing room atmosphere to be restored, Gambhir needs to go. The BCCI is itself going to elect its new secretary and treasurer soon. Unopposed. Harsh decisions have to be taken, is GG the right man for the job? How has he destroyed the careers of Sarfaraz Khan and a few more?
How he has treated players, a questionnaire should be sent to the players.
Rohit Sharma has thrown the gauntlet; sack me, drop me. He is ready to face the music. Virat Kohli has tried his best to lead even when he was assigned no title. That is his character, step up. Go ahead, remove him also.Assess Gambhir and his colleagues who masquerade as coaches with special skills. Each one has been a disaster. Does Morne Morkel not know what is workload management? Maybe not, these guys handled franchise teams, not an Indian national team. Every Indian is now praying for Jasprit Bumrah to get fit again. See the posts from his wife Sanjana Ganesan on X. She is worried and concerned.
