New Delhi: SHUBMAN GILL “He has passed his most difficult test as a captain in England,” India head coach Gautam Gambhir said on Tuesday, praising the young leader for getting the dressing room “saying and doing the right things”. On the same day, Gambhir, he was 44 years old, had more than one reason to celebrate when India finished the test series sweeping over Western India – Gill’s first triumph as a captain.Asked, as he manages a 26 -year -old who has recently been handed over by the ODI captain and begins in the role of series against Australia since Sunday, Gambhir was fast in his answer.“(Would) just allow him to be himself.“I think he worked hard. He has passed the hardest test as a captain-it was in England, five tests away from home under difficult conditions against a quality team,” he added, referring to a fixed series, which ended 2-2, fighting each match in five days.Gambhir, who led such a high -pressure assignment lasting two months, could not be harder for Gill, Gambhir said.“I know it’s hard for him … and I have said many times that England was probably the hardest test for him. Five test matches over two, two and a half months against the quality side of England. What more could he face?” he asked.“Sometimes we are still talking only about the captain, but the way the team responded to it, and its leadership is just as important,” Gambhir added.Gill, led by an example with 754 runs during the tour of England and Gambhir, noted that despite his young age star dough clearly communicates.“You have to recognize the whole group in the dressing room.As for the overall prospects of India in the ongoing cycle of the World Testing Championship, Gambhir said he would not care for the final of 2027.“For me, I don’t look forward to what will happen in the World Championship in 2027.He would consider a lighter remark that he would have a coach or coach of mental conditioning to support Gill, which is perceived as a captain in the format? Usually a direct gambhir cracked a smile.“First of all, I need,” he joked.“When the team wins, everyone is in good space, but if they don’t win, I have to keep them in good space,” he added.
