The Indian cricket team is going through a major change these days. Due to the strict attitude and ‘performance first’ policy of Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir, it is now becoming difficult for the players who are in poor form to retain their place in the team. The performance of one player in the recent T20 matches is becoming a ‘thorn in the neck’ for the team. Despite the continuous flops, the opportunities given to the player have now started testing the patience of BCCI and the selectors, due to which speculations are being made that Gambhir may take a big tough decision soon.
Bad form is weighing heavily on the balance of the team
In a fast format like T20, Team India needs such players who can start batting aggressively as soon as they come to the crease, but this player has failed to find his rhythm in the last several matches. Not only has his batting average dropped, but his strike rate is also slowing down the team’s run rate. Coach Gautam Gambhir has made it clear that every player playing for the team is responsible to prove his ability. If sources are to be believed, Gambhir is very unhappy with the continuous poor performance of this player and has made up his mind to bench him or drop him from the team soon.
Gambhir’s ‘strict’ mantra: No performance, no team
Gautam Gambhir’s management style has always been based on discipline and results. In view of the T20 World Cup and the upcoming important series, Team India is in no mood to take any risk. In such a situation, the question is arising whether the time has come to give a chance to the young talents who are performing brilliantly in domestic cricket? Cricket experts believe that if this player is not able to prove his usefulness in the next few matches, then it will be an inevitable step for Gambhir to show him the way out. Team India’s new strategy is now to give priority only to in-form players, so that a strong and balanced team can be prepared for future challenges.
