Team India: Under the leadership of former head coach of Team India Ravi Shastri, the Indian team, led by Virat Kohli, displayed a brilliant game in Test cricket and won the Test series in Australia twice, but now Gautam Gambhir is playing the responsibility of head coach for Team India. Under the leadership of head coach Gautam Gambhir, Team India's performance in Test cricket has been quite average so far.
Meanwhile, we are going to tell you about a star player in Indian cricket who was getting a chance to play continuously for Team India under the leadership of Ravi Shastri, but as soon as Gautam Gambhir became the head coach of the team, the doors of Team India have been closed for that player.
Gautam Gambhir's leadership is not giving chance to Shardul Thakur
Talking about Team India's veteran all-rounder Shardul Thakur, he played his last match for the Indian team on the South Africa tour in the year 2023. Shardul Thakur has not got a chance to play since playing his last Test match on the South Africa tour. Due to which it is believed that Gautam Gambhir does not want to give a chance to a veteran all-rounder like Shardul Thakur to play.
Gambhir is showing confidence in Nitish Reddy
Talking about Gautam Gambhir, he is giving a chance to Nitish Reddy as a fast bowling all-rounder in the Border Gavaskar Trophy going on in Australia tour. Gautam Gambhir has given Nitish Reddy a chance to play in the first two matches of the Border Gavaskar Trophy. In such a situation, it is certain that in the coming times too, Gambhir will give Nitish Reddy a chance to play instead of giving Shardul Thakur a chance as an all-rounder.
Shardul Thakur's statistics in Test cricket are as follows
Talking about Shardul Thakur, he has played 11 matches for the Indian team so far in Test cricket. In these 11 matches, Shardul Thakur has taken 31 wickets as well as scored 331 runs with the bat. Due to which the performance of Team India was also very good when Shardul Thakur played Test cricket.
