Gautam gambhir on Virat-Rohit: Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir has given a big statement on the retirement of India’s ODI captain Rohit Sharma and former Test captain Virat Kohli. Gautam Gambhir said on the retirement of both veterans with Test cricket that the absence of Rohit and Virat will be quite expensive. Gautam Gambhir said that dealing with Rohit and Kohli’s until the team would apparently be a big challenge for the team, but their retirement has also opened the way for the rest of the players to come forward and take response. In a conversation with the media, Gautam Gambhir said, “I think for a player when he starts playing and when it says goodbye, it is completely the decision of the same player. This decision is quite personal. Whether it is a selector, coach or a player, everyone has the right to tell when he will play and when he will retire from the game.”
Gautam Gambhir said this
Coach Gautam Gambhir said, “The absence of Rohit-Kohli will not be easy for the team management but we will have to play the next Test series without two senior players and then the rest of the players will be able to be experienced. Both players’ leadership capacity and experience will not be easy to fill. Their departure will not be easy for Team India that Team India will also need a new Test Captain.
When will the team announcement?
‘Roco’ means Rohit-Kohli said goodbye to International Test cricket before the five-match Test series against England. Team India has to play a five -match Test series from England from June 20. The first Test match between the two teams will be played in Leeds and a team announcement will be done in Mumbai on Saturday, May 24, 2025.
This thing said on ODI World Cup
In response to a question, Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir said, “When Jasprit Bumrah, who took command of Pace Balling in the Champions Trophy, was not in the team, I was also asked the same question that what will happen now. During that time I said that during that time I said that in this difficult time, the rest of the players will come forward and perform for the team.” When asked questions on Rohit-Kohli’s playing in the 2027 ODI World Cup, Gautam Gambhir said that it is far away and before that our focus is on the T20 World Cup.
