Indian coach Gautam Gambhir took over as the head coach of the Men in Blue last year from Rahul Dravid after India won the ICC T20 World Cup. Gambhir, within a year of his appointment, already has considerable success in white-ball cricket and one ICC trophy as well.
Gambhir has always mentioned cricket as a team game, and there has never been any place for individual brilliance on his side, since he lauds players for pulling off a game together instead of patting the shoulders of only one of the players while ignoring others.
“I have never understood why the finisher’s tag is given only to Nos. 5 to 7. An opener can also be a finisher. A No. 11 can also be a finisher. This has just been created by the media,” Gambhir once said, as quoted by the Indian Express
Instead of putting all the load of scoring several runs on just one player, he likes to distribute the responsibilities to all players and keep everyone engaged to avoid failures and losing matches.
India has a huge pool of players to choose from for their middle-order
Ever since the last T20 World Cup, India's focus has totally been on the other two formats; however, the next 6 months are for the shortest format of the game, especially with the ICC T20 World Cup in 2026.
Nitish Kumar Reddy would not be available for selection owing to the injury he sustained during the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy's Lord's Test.
Gambhir has a special affinity for all-rounders; How would his Asia Cup Squad look
As per India's current players, the likes of Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, and Riyan Parag are most likely to make the cut; however, Shivam Dube seems the ideal candidate to cater to India's need for a big hitter. Dube has one of those conventional long levers, while Rinku, on the other hand, is a more technical six-hitter, though they maintain a similar strike rate towards the death overs.
