Gautam Gambhir, the Indian head coach of the BCCI: Gautam Gambhir’s coaching in Test cricket for Team India has been very disappointing so far. The Indian team, captained by Shubman Gill, is on a tour of England these days. The Gill Brigade has faced defeat in the first Test against England. Now the second Test between the two will be played from July 02 at Edgbaston, Birmingham, but before that, the report about Gautam Gambhir is shocking.

In a report published in Inside Sports, split coaching for Team India can be selected for different formats. Team India was never in favour of Split captaincy, but at present, the captains of Team India’s three formats are different.

Will Gambhir be discharged from Test format coaching?

So now the question is arising whether Gautam Gambhir will be discharged from Test cricket coaching? In Gambhir’s coaching, Team India has performed well in the white ball, including the title of the Champions Trophy 2025.

The report quoted a BCCI official as saying, “At the moment Gautam Gambhir is doing a good job with the team. In the phase of change, you do not always get the expectation as per the expectation. Australia and England also struggled in a period of change. So it is too early to decide on Gambhir.”

Source further said, “We currently have 4 Test matches in England and we hope we can make changes in things. Next, we will see. They have full faith in the board.” In this context, it does not seem that Gambhir will be removed from Test coaching.

Now, after the England series, it will be interesting to see what the BCCI decides on Gambhir. If Team India is successful in winning the series, then it will be beneficial for the coach Gambhir.
