Coach Gautam Gambhir Questions 'Technique And Temperament' Of Indian Batters

By AFP News November 16, 2025 • 20:07 PM View: 337

India coach Gautam Gambhir launched a withering broadside at his batters on Sunday, saying they lacked the technique and temperament to knock off the 124 they needed to beat South Africa in the first Test in Kolkata.

In a low-scoring match on a turning and inconsistent pitch, the hosts faltered in their chase to be bowled out for 93 in the second session on day three at Eden Gardens, giving the Test world champions an unexpected 30-run win.
