Gautam Gambhir on Morne Morkel: The Indian team is being criticized after the crushing defeat in the five-match Test series against Australia. Along with this, coach Gautam Gambhir is also facing a lot of criticism. Actually, in the Sydney Test, Rohit Sharma surprised everyone by staying out of the match. There were reports that Rohit had to take this decision due to the interference of the coach. During the Australia tour, coach Gautam Gambhir got angry on the field during the practice session. He scolded bowling coach Morne Morkel in the middle of the field.
What was the incident?
According to a report, top BCCI officials have been informed about this incident that took place during the practice session. Morne Morkel arrived a little late for the practice session due to a private meeting before the tour. Seeing this, Gautam Gambhir got angry and scolded Morkel in the middle of the field.
Performance of BCCI support staff monitored
A BCCI source said, Gautam Gambhir is very strict regarding discipline. He immediately scolded Morkel on the field. The BCCI is keeping an eye on the performance of the support staff and is seeking feedback from senior players about their contribution. Former cricketer Sunil Gavaskar also questioned the role of the batting coach after Virat Kohli was repeatedly out outside the off stump.
Another coach’s job is also in danger
Apart from this, the source said that many questions are also being raised on batting coach Abhishek Nair. Gambhir himself has been a great batsman. The board has asked the players whether Nair is doing anything new for the team. Similarly, the role of assistant coach Ryan Tay is also being discussed.
