Rohit Sharma on Gambhir: No Rift Amid India’s Cricketing Challenges

Rohit Sharma highlights mutual trust with head coach Gautam Gambhir despite challenges during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

‘We trust each other’, Rohit Sharma said there is no difference of opinion with head coach Gautam Gambhir. Indian captain Rohit Sharma said that he and head coach Gautam Gambhir share a good relationship. Rohit and Gambhir have been working together since Rahul Dravid stepped down from the post of head coach after the victory in the Men’s T20 World Cup in West Indies and America, but India has lost two consecutive Test series against New Zealand and Australia during Gambhir’s tenure as head coach.

New Zealand defeated India 3-0 on its soil after 12 years. Recently, there were also reports that Gambhir had fiercely attacked the Indian team inside the dressing room during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. However, at the time of announcing the Champions Trophy team, 37-year-old Rohit Sharma said that Gambhir has shown full faith in him.

We sit together and make a strategy

Rohit said we both are very clear about what we want to do. I sit here and see what happens behind the scenes as a strategy in every match. Not going to discuss it, but it is very clear in my mind. Gautam Gambhir is very good… once we enter the field, he trusts the captain on what he is doing on the field.

Rohit Sharma on Gambhir: He trusts me

Rohit said the basic conversation happens just outside the field. On the field or maybe in the changing room, once we enter the field, it is all about what I do on the field. We have that kind of trust in each other. That’s how it should be. That’s all.

Rohit Sharma on Gambhir: Training in Mumbai

It is worth noting that Rohit Sharma is training with the Mumbai team. As far as Rohit is concerned, he recently joined Mumbai’s training session for the Ranji Trophy to get his form back. Recently, the BCCI has made it mandatory for all cricketers to play domestic cricket to remain eligible for national selection. However, there is no guarantee whether Rohit will take the field in Mumbai’s Elite Group A Ranji Trophy match against Jammu and Kashmir.

Gambhir’s credibility at stake

Rohit had a poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, where his place in the national team was also questioned. In three Tests, Rohit scored only 31 runs before withdrawing from the New Year’s Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Gambhir’s credibility as head coach also came under question.
