Not even Rohit or Bumrah…? Team India head coach Gambhir discusses his 'all-time favourite playing 11' | News India

Gautam Gambhir All Time Favorite Playing 11: Gautam Gambhir, the current head coach of the Indian cricket team and former veteran player, has chosen his all-time favorite playing eleven team. Many great players have been included in it. But many such names have been left out of this list. Which people would not have even thought about. Gautam Gambhir's all-time favorite playing eleven team is surprising cricket fans.

Bumrah was not given a place

Rohit Sharma has been playing the role of opener for the Indian team for a long time. But Gambhir has chosen Virender Sehwag and not Rohit as the opening batsman in his playing eleven. At the same time, Jasprit Bumrah, the most dangerous fast bowler of the present time, has also not got a place in Gambhir's all-time playing eleven.

Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh have been placed at number 5 and 6

Gautam Gambhir has chosen former legendary batsmen Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid for number three and four in his team. Apart from this, Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh have got place at number 5 and 6. Apart from this, MS Dhoni has been selected as wicketkeeper and batsman.

Ignoring Harbhajan Singh as a spinner

Talking about bowlers, Gambhir has included former Indian cricket team legends Anil Kumble and Ravichandran Ashwin as spinners and has also ignored veteran Harbhajan Singh. Apart from this, Gambhir has chosen Zaheer Khan and Irfan Pathan as fast bowlers. However, it is surprising that Gambhir has excluded Jaspreet Bumrah from his playing eleven as a fast bowler.
