Ex-India cricketer criticises Rohit and Gambhir for loss in 1st Test v NZ

Former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwary criticised skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir as India lost their 1st Test of the 3-match Test series against New Zealand. This was also the first time that New Zealand beat India in a Test match on hone ground since 1988.

Manoj questioned the decision taken by Rohit and Gambhir for India’s playing XI in the 1st Test where India went with two pacers, namely Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.

Sometimes I don’t understand the decisions. Common sense seems to be lacking. What the coach or captain is trying to prove, is beyond my understanding,” Tiwary said on the cricbuzz YouTube channel.

I feel like, whenever there is a new coach or new captain, they try to prove something, and take such decisions,” said Tiwari.
