About this video
Former India Captain Sunil Gavaskar addresses the criticism against current India Head Coach Gautam Gambhir. Gavaskar posed a counter-question to critics, asking why they demand accountability for losses but did not offer Gambhir a lifetime contract when India won the Champions Trophy and Asia Cup under him. He stated, 'If you're not prepared to give him credit for the Champions Trophy and the Asia Cup win, then please tell me why you want to blame him?'. Gavaskar disagreed with the notion that India does not take Test cricket seriously, asserting the team is strong in all formats but better in the white-ball game. He emphasized that the key issue is not player quality but the lack of preparation time before Test series, pointing to scheduling as a critical aspect that needs to prioritize Indian cricket's interests over 'somebody else's coffers'.
