Shailaja Sundar said that Gautam Gambhir trusts Washington Sundar because of his ability to perform well, irrespective of the situation.
There is no doubt that Sundar is a favorite of the Gautam Gambhir-led team management, as he has been given the premier spin-bowling all-rounder role in the Test team after the retirement of Ravichandran Ashwin, with Axar Patel being dropped.
He was not picked in the playing XI for the series-opener at Headingley in Leeds, but was slotted in the side for the remainder of the matches.
In eight innings with the bat, Sundar scored 284 runs at an average of 47.33, including a match-saving century at Old Trafford in Manchester. With the ball, he bagged 7 wickets at an average of 38.57, an economy of 3.64, and a strike rate of 63.57, including a game-changing spell at Lord's.
