Gautam Gambhir as India Head Coach?

Gautam Gambhir as India Head Coach: There is a saying that says “A good player can’t be a good coach and a good coach can’t be a good player.” Certainly in every sport this is considered the same but currently in the world of cricket, this is not what’s happening. Former Indian World Cup-winning cricketer Gautham Gambhir was a legend back in the day when was playing international cricket. He was an excellent player who played many match-winning knocks for India during his career as a player

However, after his retirement, he moved into politics and commentary and was usually seen behind the scenes during the different cricket matches. He first started as a mentor for Lucknow Super Giants where he guided them to two playoffs twice in a row. After that, he moved back to KKR management in 2023, where he currently guided KKR to the finals of TATA IPL 2024.

Gautham Gambhir is just one step away from creating history, if he wins the trophy with KKR this time, he will become the only person to win an IPL title both as a player and as a mentor. So seeing his immense potential the BCCI is considering him as one of the options for a new head coach of the senior Indians men’s team.

Is Gautham Gambhir a Perfect Fit for the Indian Teams Head Coach Position 

Rahul Dravid who is currently the Head Coach of the Indian team is in the final days of his contract which ends in July after the T20 World Cup. So BCCI as a measure for the future requested interested candidates to apply for the role. However, if India wins T20 World Cup under Rahul Dravid then there are chances that he might continue. But as of now BCCI is in search of a new coach and Gambhir has been among the top in that list for potential candidates. 

Gautham Gambhir with his impressive record as a coach/mentor has been an influence in respective teams’ success and the India team who won their last ICC trophy in 2013 are in search of the right person who can guide/create the team that wins games for the nation. His tactical ability to read situations in games is what makes him a genius in this part of the game.
