It’s Not A Compulsion To Have Three Left-handers, Says Gautam Gambhir On Left-right Hander Debate

By IANS News August 22, 2023 • 19:37 PM View: 991

ODI World Cup: Former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir rejected ex-head coach Ravi Shastri's idea of having three left-handers in the squads for Asia Cup and World Cup, emphasizing that players should be picked on form rather than whether they are left or right-handed.

Earlier, Shastri had suggested that India should consider including three left-handers within their top seven batting positions for the upcoming Asia Cup and the ODI World Cup to add variety to their line-up.
