Gambhir vs Ajinkya: Has there been a rift in the methods of captaincy and coaching? Know the whole truth of this new debate in Indian cricket
News India Live, Digital Desk: Ajinkya Rahane is a name known for its calmness and amazing patience. Rahane often remains silent until the water goes above his head. But for some time now, the news coming about the new head coach of the Indian team Gautam Gambhir and his ‘management style’ has forced everyone to think. Rahane has raised some questions which are directly indicating that in the new era of coaching, perhaps experienced players and old dignity are not getting that much importance. As soon as Gautam Gambhir became the coach, a different air of aggression and change blew in Indian cricket. But is this ‘over-aggressive style’ able to keep pace with the senior players? This is the main question that has sparked discussion. What is Ajinkya Rahane’s concern? Rahane’s message is clear—cricket is not a game revolving only around aggressive behavior on the field or only the coach’s ‘vision’. The role of the coach in management should be that of a supporter and not that of a dictator who insists on running everything in his own style. If players like Rahane, who has rescued the team in many difficult situations, are raising questions, then it clearly means that there is a lack of communication somewhere in the dressing room. Is Gambhir’s ‘intention’ outweighing? Gautam Gambhir is always known for speaking clearly. As soon as he took command, he made it clear that he would give opportunity only to those who would fit into his aggressive intentions. But experts say that international cricket is not only a game of fours and sixes, but also a game of delicacy and reading the situation. Rahane’s questions have brought to the world the battle between this old school of thought and Gambhir’s new vision. What is the opinion of the fans? Now a debate has started among the cricket lovers whether only the one whom the coach likes will remain in Team India? These comments of Rahane regarding respect for senior players and their place are further strengthening the apprehensions being raised regarding Gambhir’s management. People are also reminding that when the team loses, fingers are raised on these coaching decisions.
