Test Cricket Needs Specialists, Not Part-time All-rounders: Manoj Tiwary Questions Gautam Gambhir’s Approach
India’s narrow 22-run loss to England at Lord’s, saw the team fall behind 1-2 in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series. India, led by Shubman Gill, fought hard but faltered on the final day for the second time in the series, despite Ravindra Jadeja’s valiant efforts.
With this loss, Gambhir’s record as India’s head coach across formats stands at 13 matches, with just four wins, eight defeats, and one draw. Since his appointment in July 2024, India’s Test ranking has slipped from No.1 to No.4, and they failed to qualify for the ICC World Test Championship 2025 final after a disappointing series loss in Australia.
