Gautam Gambhir: “Our team even at 100 runs…”, Coach Gautam Gambhir's big announcement before the New Zealand series, created panic in world cricket

Gautam Gambhir Press Conference IND vs NZ 1st Test: Ahead of the three-Test series against New Zealand starting on Wednesday, India's head coach Gautam Gambhir on Monday made it clear that he will not restrict his batsmen in Test cricket because the more risks are taken, the more will be the benefits. India had recently adopted a similar approach against Bangladesh in the rain-affected Kanpur Test match. In this match, not a single ball could be bowled for two days due to rain, but India ultimately won by seven wickets.

When our team is out for 100 runs

Gambhir told reporters before the series, “The greater the risk, the greater the benefit, the greater the risk, greater the possibility of failure.” He said, “There will be a day when our team gets out for 100 runs but We have to accept it. We will continue to support our players to play high-risk cricket. We want to move forward in this manner and achieve results no matter what the circumstances.

Gambhir said about the batsmen

He said, “There are many batsmen in our team who can bat for two days. Certainly our first goal will be to win the match. If such a situation arises that we have to play to draw the match, then this will be the second or third option for us. The Indian coach said, “We do not want to play any other type of cricket. We want our players to come out on the field and play their natural game.

What will be the strategy against New Zealand?

Gambhir admitted that the New Zealand team can present a tough challenge to him but he will leave no stone unturned to achieve a favorable result. He said, “New Zealand will present a completely different challenge.” We know they have a very good team and they have some very good players. They have players who can hurt us, so these three test matches will be a tough challenge. ,

Gambhir said, “We respect him completely but we will continue to play hard cricket.” Whether it is New Zealand or Australia, we want to win every match for our country. We are not thinking ahead right now. Our focus right now is only on the series against New Zealand.
