Team India lost back to back T20I series for the first time since 2019 as the Men in Blue fell to an embarrassing 9-wicket loss against England on Thursday. The defeat comes after India were thrashed by 125 runs earlier in the tour. Netizens shifted the blame to Gautam Gambhir and his tactics, with India now winless across 6 games.
India head coach Gautam Gambhir found himself at the centre of a social media storm after India's disappointing series defeat against England. England took an unassailable 3-0 lead, marking India's second consecutive series defeat. India had not lost a T20I series since the 2024 T20 World Cup, and suffered back to back losses for the first time since 2019.
Soon after the loss, frustrated fans demanded head coach Gautam Gambhir's resignation and questioning several team selection decisions.
One of the biggest talking points among fans was the omission of wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson, with many arguing that the Kerala batter deserved more opportunities in the series. Several users questioned why Samson was overlooked despite India's inconsistent middle-order performances.
At the same time, supporters criticised the continued backing of Tilak Varma and Washington Sundar, both of whom struggled to make a significant impact throughout the series. Many felt the duo was persisted with despite repeated failures, while in-form players remained on the sidelines.
