There is pressure on coach Gautam Gambhir to bring Team India back to winning ways.

New Delhi. After Team India’s defeat against Australia and New Zealand, Indian coach Gautam Gambhir is on everyone’s radar. Some are questioning his coaching style and some are questioning the atmosphere in the dressing room. Meanwhile, Gambhir has got the support of England coach Brendon McCullum. McCullum on Monday described Indian coach Gautam Gambhir as an excellent leader and expressed hope that the Indian team will perform well under his leadership.

Gautam Gambhir took over the post of head coach after India’s title win in the T20 World Cup last year. After this, India lost in the ODI series in Sri Lanka. After this, New Zealand defeated India at home in the Test series. Then Australia defeated Rohit Brigade 3-1 at home. Now T20 series is to be played between India and England. The first match of this series is to be played in Kolkata.

Former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum still has faith in Gambhir. Interestingly, Gautam Gambhir and McCullum have played together for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in IPL. Both have also been coaches of this team.

Brendon McCullum said on Monday, ‘I have worked with Gautam Gambhir and he is an excellent leader. Even before this, when he was entrusted with any responsibility, he performed it very well and achieved better results. He said, ‘He is just joining this team. I have no doubt that he will perform to the best of his talent. We (England) will have to find a new way to compete with them because their style of play is also like ours.
