Gautam Gambhir: Indian cricket team head coach Gautam Gambhir is once again in the headlines. Despite the team’s success on the field, reports of internal opposition against them are emerging. Recently, former Indian fast bowler and player with Gambhir, Munaf Patel made a big claim and said that Gambhir is facing opposition within the Board of Control for Cricket in India.

What did Munaf Patel say about Gambhir?

In fact, recently, former Indian team fast bowler Munaf Patel, while talking on Times of India’s Bombay Sports Exchange Podcast, said that if a head coach like Gautam Gambhir is removed, it will become more difficult to handle the players. He tells the truth exactly in such a way, which many people do not like. Gambhir is the only person who is handling the players. Apart from him, no other coach will be able to handle the player.

Taking his point forward, Munaf Patel said that, if Gambhir steps down from the post of head coach even after 3 years, then things will get more complicated, because he can control things. If something goes wrong, Gambhir has the courage to drop players. The former fast bowler further said that the coach should have control, he cannot become friends of the players. If you are a friend, you are rigging the system.

Taking his point forward, Munaf said, there should be a rate for the coach. Just think about how many enemies Gambhir is making while doing his work. Along with this he said that about 8 out of 10 people in the commentary panel are against him. Whereas 4 out of 5 selectors will be against him. Despite this he does his work.
