You did not do much yourself, after the defeat against New Zealand, Gautam Gambhir's video goes viral.

Whatever the sport, it silences even the best of the bigwigs and shows them the mirror. That is why in the era of “viral videos”, do not say anything that becomes a reason for you and the fans to hide your face.

New Delhi: Whatever the sport, it silences even the best of the bigwigs and shows them the mirror. That is why in the era of “viral videos”, do not say anything that becomes a reason for you and the fans to hide your face. Something similar is happening these days with Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir. As soon as the team was whitewashed 0-3 by New Zealand, the new head has been criticised from all sides. The media and former cricketers have started raising questions, while fans dig out old records and videos at such times. One such video of Gambhir is going viral rapidly.

Shastri had made this claim:

Actually, in a program, Gambhir was asked a question about former coach Ravi Shastri. Gambhir gave such a shocking answer to this that the person asking the question was left speechless. No one had expected that Gambhir would say something that would become a cause of trouble for him in the future. In the video, Gambhir had questioned Shastri’s achievement as a player. Gambhir had given this reaction to Shastri’s Team India winning the series in Australia and terming it the best Indian team to play abroad of all time. In fact, under Shastri’s coaching, the Indian team won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy twice in a row against Australia between 2012 and 2021. During that time, Team India was naturally the number one team.

Shastri had given such a retort:

But, Gambhir had strongly retorted to Shastri’s claim. Gautam said that Shastri had exaggerated the actual record of Team India during this period. Gautam had then said, “I can only laugh at this. I can say with confidence that either Shastri does not know about the record or he has not seen the series in the past”, Gautam had said, “When you do not win anything, you feel that whichever team has won under your coaching is the best. This is because you have not won anything. Shastri has only won the ODI World Series. Apart from this, he has not won anything as a cricketer. I do not remember that he has ever won anything outside India as a player.”
