Without Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, India will play a 5 -match Test series on the tour of England, for which the Indian team’s announcement is possible on Saturday. Before this series, captain Rohit and Kohli had said goodbye to Test cricket. The head coach of the Indian team Gautam Gambhir was asked during a show whether he was already aware of the retirement of these veterans? Gambhir also believed that it would be difficult between these two.
After the Pahalgam attack, India launched aircraft on terrorist bases in Pakistan. It was named Operation Sindoor, which started from 7 May. On this evening, Rohit Sharma announced his Test retirement. Then news came that Virat Kohli also wants to retire from the Test but he has been forbidden to do so in the ‘Operation Sindoor’. After the Indo-Pakistan ceasefire agreement on 10 May, Virat also announced retirement from the Test on 12 May. Now Gautam Gambhir has broken the silence about this, whether he knew about it in advance.
What did Gautam Gambhir say?
In the ‘Cricket Next’ show, he was asked whether he was already aware that both the legends were going to retire. To this Gambhir said, “When you start playing and leave the game, this is a personal decision. No one has the right to, whether it is a coach, selector, or any person in this country, no one has the right to tell you when to take retirement or not. It is their decision.”
Gautam Gambhir admitted that his shortage will be missed in Team India, but he also said that such young players also get a chance to show their talent. He said, “Yes, it will be difficult for us, but still there will be people who will definitely move their hands forward. Due to no one, the other person gets an opportunity to do something special for the country.”
Gautam Gambhir further said, “The same question was asked to me before the Champions Trophy when Jaspreet Bumrah was not there. The same thing happened there, and this gave another player a chance to do something special for the country.”
