Gautam Gambhir supports the Indian team in England

India has named the young Shubman Gill as a test captain before the England series. Gill will succeed Rohit Sharma, who recently announced his format retirement. Shortly after, the star striker Virat Kohli also announced his retirement from the Cricket Test while the versatile veteran Ravichandran Ashwin had announced his retirement from international cricket in the BGT 2024-25 series.

Consequently, the Indian team will be without the three pillars and the players experienced in England, making it a difficult challenge for the side under the new captain Shubman Gill.

However, head coach Gautam Gambir supported the team to achieve something special in England despite the absence of the three senior pros.

“There are two ways to look at this. One is that we are without our three most experienced players, or we have a phenomenal opportunity to do something special for the country,” said Gambir.

The series marks the start of a new era for the Indian team in Test Cricket.
