‘My country, my identity, my life’ – The powerful message of the day of independence of Gautam Gambir | Cricket news

On independence day, Gautam Gambir remained simple but powerful. Publishing a photo with the Habs, he wrote: “My country, my identity, my life! I have Hind! 🇮🇳 » – A message that resonated with fans through India. It was more than a patriotic legend; It was a reflection of a man whose cricket trip has always been linked to the pride of the nation.

Now head coach of India, Gambir has the same passion he has shown as a worker. His mandate, which began in July 2024, was already full of ups, stockings and a meticulous exam. In the test cricket, the results were mixed. India played 15 tests under it, winning five, losing eight and pulling two. The most recent Anderson-Stendulkar trophy in England was an exciting battle-India lost the first and third tests, rebounded to win the second and last games, with a draw with a high score in Manchester sealing a result of the 2-2 series. It was a competition filled with tense finishes, resilient returns and moments that reminded fans of the combat spirit of India.

In white ball cricket, Gambir’s impact was more immediate. India dominated in T20is, winning 13 games out of 15, remaining unbeaten in series. The ODIs saw a stumbled start with a home defeat against Sri Lanka, but the team has rebounded, winning eight consecutive games and raising the Champions 2025 trophy. Gambir’s style of leadership has sometimes aroused criticism of too much hash and change, but it remains firm to assume responsibility, saying: “We lose together, we gain together.” For a man who scored 97 in the 2011 World Cup final and 75 in the 2007 T20 World Cup final, this feeling of responsibility and love for the country is not new. His independence day post recalled that, for him, cricket and patriotism have always become a peer.
