India were completely outclassed by South Africa in the two-Test series. They lost the opener in Kolkata by 30 runs before suffering a 408-run defeat in Guwahati. The back-to-back losses handed the Men in Blue a 0-2 whitewash. Notably, it was the second whitewash in a home Test series under Gambhir’s tenure.
“The BCCI is not exactly pleased with India head coach Gautam Gambhir’s forthright comments on the Kolkata pitch following the team’s recent Test defeat to South Africa, even as the board stops short of taking any immediate action," the report read.
This Is Exactly the Pitch We Were Looking For - Gautam Gambhir
India collapsed while chasing 124 in Kolkata. Gautam Gambhir defended the Eden Gardens surface, stating that the pitch performed exactly as the team had requested. He said the defeat was simply the result of poor execution, not the wicket.
“Yes, it might not be a wicket which is going to be very flamboyant where you can play those big shots. But if you are willing to put your head down, definitely it is a wicket where you can score."

The board plans to review India’s Test decline with Gautam Gambhir and chief selector Ajit Agarkar. However, they are unlikely to make quick or major changes right now. Split coaching is not being considered seriously, and there are very few alternate options for a head coach at the moment.
