Gautam Gambhir is under pressure before the second test against England after India’s loss of headingley in 11 red balls has achieved seven defeats since his coach last year.
The 43-year-old former opening cup man stands from some quarters from Flak compared to his selection, man management and how he is in press conferences.

India heralds a new era after the resignation of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Gambhir widely reported that he had played a role at the outcome of at least one of the two veteran stars.
Under the direction of New Captain Shubman Gill, visitors were beaten in the opening test of the series of five-game English by five gates, which contributed to a growing alarm feeling.
The second test at Edgbaston begins on Wednesday and the patience is thin home.
“Gautam Gambhir is under considerable pressure. The situation is increasingly tense,” said former Indian batsman Aakash Chopra on his YouTube channel.

“He made two victories against Bangladesh and one against Australia, but we lost three games against New Zealand, three to Australia and now to England.
“He lost and lost.”
Gambhir, who had a key role in the Odi World Champion Triumph India as a player in 2011, succeeded Rahul Dravid in July last year.
Dravid signed a largely successful three-year term by winning the T20 World Cup.
Gambhir was selected as his successor almost exactly a year ago, but he and his side suffered a significant bloody nose when they went down to New Zealand 3-0.
It was India’s first defeat of the test series at home in 12 years.

– ‘aggressive’ –
Together with Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar, Gambhir was criticized for leaving the Schlagmann with medium order Sarfaraz Khan from the squad for England.
Karun Nair was selected in front of Sarfaraz, who last year had numerous 68 and 56 against a visiting England and achieved 150 against New Zealand in Bengaluru.
Gambhir’s critics say that he is hot and accuses him of acting too much on instinct.
Before the series, the Indian Wicketkeeper-Batsman Dinesh Karthik said that Gauti (Gambhir) is tactically a very good trainer.
“Man management is the area that I would take a look at,” he told Sky Sports’ Cricket -Podcast.

“But one thing about him is that he is looking for his players what is massive.
“What I sometimes feel is that they are aggressive as captain, they cannot be a coach.”
Critics do not like Gambhir’s press conferences.
After the defeat in Headingley, Gambhir looked like a question about the centuries of Rishabh Pant in every in our inner and grabbed.
The visiting strikers achieved five centuries in the game, but still lost.
Former striker Sanjay Manjrekar said that Gambhir should be kept away from the media after the trainer was torn back from Ricky Ponting last year before the tour to Australia.

India lost the series 3-1.
– Bumrah badly managed? – –
On the last day of the first England test, when the hosts followed 371, the Senior Batsman Kl Rahul and the deputy pants from Gill saw the changes in the field rather than the skipper.
Pace Speerhead Jasprit Bumrah Gill’s idea in the last overs seemed to reject him to put him back into attack.
Bumrah, who will only play two more tests in the series to manage his workload, returned figures from 5-83 in England’s first innings from 465, but went to Wicketless for the second time.
A key to India’s opportunities is the key to India’s opportunities.

The South African Great AB de Villiers asked whether it was “mismanagement” or an injury that was the cause of Bumrah that rests at a crucial point of the game.
The lack of bowling support for Bumrah and India’s lower order shorter von 430 to 3 to 471 in the first innings and 333-4 to 364 in the second damage also the team in Leeds.
In a country where cricket is an obsession and every game is dissected for days after, Gambhir has to quickly find some answers.
