Gautam Gambhir bluntly said that batting orders are overrated in T20I cricket and the real focus should be on the impact created by batters rather than focusing on which numbers they are batting at.
They have played an ultra-aggressive brand of cricket both with the bat and ball, and are yet to lose a series in 20-over cricket under his guidance.
In a video shared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Gambhir talked about this and said:
It's the impact that matters - Gautam Gambhir
Gambhir justified his decision to create a flexible batting order by saying that the impact matters more in T20 cricket and not the runs. He said:
"In T20 cricket, it's all about the impact. It's 120 balls. Every ball is an event. Every ball needs to have the maximum impact that we can have. And that's the reason from day one, I think it has been a very fluid batting order. And that is how we want to play this game."
We don't want to play a game thinking about averages - Gautam Gambhir
"We don't want to play a game thinking about averages, strike rates and all that stuff. We are thinking about how much impact can a person create in what situation. I think that is going to be very important for this T20 side.
"We want to be ahead of T20 cricket, ahead of times. And that is exactly the most important thing is that these guys, the young boys have adapted. And hopefully, they continue adapting and evolving in future."
