Exclusive | Ind vs Eng: ‘Gautam Gambir, not Shubman Gill, will be under the spotlight’ – Ex -England Spinner | Cricket news

NEW DELHI: The former Spinner of England Monty Paneful believes that the next series of five -game tests in England will be a major test of Gautam Gambir references as a red ball coach. According to Panesar, more than the new Shubman Gill test captain, Gambir is under the spotlight when the high challenges series start. The first test begins on June 20 at Headingley Stadium in Leeds.Extracts …The test team of India seems relatively inexperienced on paper. Do you think that this young side led by Shubman Gill has what it takes to the history of the script in England?This Indian team has some young people who had the opportunity to play the county cricket. Because of this, they must use this experience in the face of England and really support themselves to believe that they can face England. Hopefully England will produce relatively flat locations. If this is the case, I think it will be an equal competition. But even if the locations have grass, I believe that India is still attacking bowling in to exploit these conditions. The key, however, will remain with doughs and quisors. Can they translate their county cricket experience into test performance?English conditions are known to test the players uniquely. What challenges do you plan for this Indian team in the next series?For Indian strikers, the big challenge will come when it is covered. Under these conditions, the air cools, the ball begins to swing more and sewing a little more on the surface. There are more zip on the ground in these moments, and India must avoid losing checks in clusters. They will have to cling to it, focus on survival, and once they have the storm and get bored of a few quillers, it will become easier. Bad session could remove them from the game.What Indian players do you think have the potential for game changes in this five -game series?I think Sai Sudharsan is one of those players who could become the star in small groups on this tour. He did well for Surrey and has the temperament to challenge the quisors of England. So for me, Sai Sudharsan could become the next superstar of Indian cricket. In addition, I think it’s a big tour for Shardul Thakur. Abroad, he gives India an option as a second change bowler player who can take counters and be economical. He presents it naturally, so I see that it is also an important tour for him.

What is the size of a role that Kuldeep Yadav play in the series? Can he appear in the five tests given the English conditions?I think they will stay with Ravira Jadeja, counting on her experience. England strikers may prefer to face the Kuldeep Yadav relatively inexperienced. But if India stins its XI with versatile, Kuldeep could slip as a second spinner and provide this X factor. So yes, they could go with Jadeja at six, Shardul or Nitish Reddy at seven years old, and that would open a place in Kuldeep. With Shubman Gill entering the role of test captain after Rohit Sharma’s retirement, all eyes will also be on coach Gautam Gambir. Do you think this series could end up being more about Gambir’s impact than Gill’s leadership?Gautam Gambhir clearly wants to build a young team that follows its methods. He is a hard and disciplinary projector. This is a tour where Gambir can shape these players without influence or resistance of senior stars. If India wins, it will be largely considered to be the beginning of a new era under Gambir. If Gambhir conducts this young Indian team to a serial victory in England, we will start to mention it alongside the best coaches – like Andy Flower, Ricky Ponting and Stephen Fleming.

What is your assessment of England’s “Bazball” approach in this series? Do you think it will work against this Indian part?As for Bazball, I think it could be a dangerous strategy. Indian quisors have too much experience and would like to strikers from England to become harsh, mark six or seven more and be completed for 200–220 in 40 to 50 Overs. This would put India in control. So I expect England to be a little more cautious. If they go all the guns from the start, it could turn against him.England supports the young Spinner Shoaib Bashir in this series. But do you think that its inconsistency and its tendency to escape could end up harming their chances?Regarding Shoaib Bashir, its natural delivery drifts due to its high -arms action. His challenge will be to play more and more folds and target the stump. If he sticks to medium lines, the Indian strikers will play it comfortably. If he drops outside and threatens both edges, then he becomes a threat. If he only attacks the inner edge, the Indian strikers will dismantle it.Do you think James Anderson And Stuart Broad Once brought to the team?I think England is missing an X factor. Gus Atkinson is injured. Mark Wood is not available either – he was their match winner. Jamie Overton has not played since 2022. Chris Woakes returns from an injury. Josh Tongue and Brydon Carse are promising quasses but are inexperienced.Kl Rahul will be the most experienced striker in this Indian part, while Karun Nair returns after eight years. To what extent will their contributions be crucial in the training of India?It’s a big tour for Karun Nair. He needs to nail this n -n ° 3 or n ° 4 niche and to make his own. If he has a good visit, he could consolidate his place for the next five years. He has talent, temperament and technique. It’s a question of belief now. I hope it does not go to a shell because it is a test arena. He must express himself, enjoy the scene and show what he is capable of. Kl Rahul, on the other hand, will be anchor. It is he who stabilizes the ship when India is in difficulty. It can beat long hours and allows others to play their natural aggressive game. It is a bit like Pujara in this direction.What would be your choice for the first five of India during the first test in Headingley?My top five for the first test would be: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Kl Rahul, Shubman Gill, Karun Nair and Sai Sudharsan.What is your global prediction for the series?If these are green terrains, England could have a slight advantage. If the surfaces are flat, I think India has a great chance of winning. And I suspect that the ECB would like the matches to extend over 4 and 5 days – for the show of the Tentulkar -Anderson trophy. This could work in favor of India.
