He approached the last time, but it was a long waiting for the trophy that is now called Tendulkar-andrson Trophy.It’s a good thing, it’s a series of five tests because the party can (do A) comeback. And for a young Indian side like this, with a new captain, a new vice-cap, almost everything new there is a series of five tests. And of course, when it comes to changing the name of the trophy, it’s up to administrators. We have to try with it. And I’m sure it will be a very exciting series, this.
Gautam Gambhir sends a strict message after the tragedy of Bengaluru
You mentioned a new one there several times. New Captain, New Vice-Capital. Start with … SHUBMAN GILL is a young, still ongoing work in terms of test cricket and test launch. How do you look at SHUBMAN GILL, test dough? Do you feel that he is ready for this challenge – both as a dough and a captain?Now, whether we saw SHUBMAN GILL in a test cricket, it was assured that he was also able to play in this format. He got useful runs in a hard, hard -fought series in Australia. Of course, England can always test the best dough. But again it was at the beginning of his career. And we have the SHUBMAN GILL, who has seen a lot of things, even though he is 25 years old. He has a lot of experience. He was with the Indian team for a while. He played different formats. And he also developed the feeling of receiving responsibility and solving responsibility on the basis of becoming a franchise captain on the IPL side.So it’s all he brings to the game he has had for some time. And for a young captain, the type of support it gains in terms of inputs from other experienced members on the side is important. And of course, just repeat the cliché, the captain is just as good as his team. The young captain needs his team to measure, pick up the bar and perform together. And then the young captain is likely to overcome challenges on a heavy tour like this.The support he gets and the captain is as good as the team. First I get to the team. What were your initial ideas of the group? Do you think she checked the right boxes?Spinners, yes, we checked the boxes. And even launching, maybe half of it. It’s just that the other half will depend on the slot that is provided to the doughs that are given to the doughs. And the allocation of the role, I think it will depend. It depends on who bats, which number.And who is, they want to be part of this branding unit will be very important. Because we got as (Abhimanyu) Easwarean and Karun Nair, who almost forced themselves to the party with just the weight of their runs for a certain time. Now the question is the level of trust that the team administration has on these two to give them chances first in the series.One player you would see close is Sai Sudhasan. It does not mix the formats, but on the fantastic IPL rides on this receptionist and looked very compact. It inspires trust in its district trips. And the way he modeled his game is very correct. Do you count that he could get a look during this tour?No, let’s not forget that Easwaren runs much higher than him for a long time. As part of the group we had Easware. We don’t play him. And it creates a lot of dilemma again when another selection appears. We will have to try to fully reward him in the sense that it makes no sense in the group. We do not, let’s say, a player who has opened in the past who is willing to open. At the top of the order is a free slot. And here you have on the other side, you have a player who has opened directly during his life, which almost runs almost every season. And then you choose it in the group. When the opening slot is free, you don’t use it. I think we have to answer this particular bit first. Again, we got someone who is doing comeback after a long time. And then there is no spring onion now. Is up to the age of 30. Is experienced. It is also in the best form.

Will KL Rahl play consistently in the upcoming series of test series?
You just mentioned Karun Nair. Someone who returns to a good run in the home circuit found his second wind, did well in the IPL on several occasions, twice for India. But then one player who still slips under the radar is Kl Rahul. It starts the series very strongly, but then narrows. How important these nine tests will be for KL Rahul – five away and then four at home.Yeah, that also happened on his last tour of England. He started well and then narrowed down and that happened. We all know it. But again, however, he has experience, has running, is able to run, gives you the impression that he can run. He is also aware of the fact that in terms of consistency, he must increase. Now the matter is very simple. You play it in the first three test matches, you can see how it goes. Obviously, if he is doing well, you will continue, and then he must be told, yes, we are very well aware of the fact that you are talented, played in all three formats. Now it is time to increase it in terms of consistency and a message must be given.And that’s a way of going. If you are as in a transitional period. You must try to look for more options.
I think this team is in the same situation as Dhoni’s team when they started the first World Cup T20. There are no expectations. This is a great advantage
Wv Raman
Everyone says it will now be Gautama Gambhira, more than SHUBMAN GILL. What are you doing, a coach? And how important is the task for Gautam Gambhir?It’s not just about the coach. Yes, we all know that Gambhir is a good tactic. He is also a very intense man. And he also has the best interest of the team. So we must try to forget the fact that everything should be related to the coach. We didn’t do it with his predecessors. We do it with him if you remember. So the coach is always someone who has to stay in the background. We should allow the coach to do his job. And he will take all decisions based on how he sees things. Because it is the one who is quite aware of what is exactly what is happening with each individual on the side. And then as far as this team is concerned, it will always be a team called Captain, which is successful. People do not call it Rohit’s team until he started to succeed as a captain in the White Ball cricket. The same thing happened with Virat in the Red Ball cricket. So it is called the captain’s team when it starts well when it stays for a long time as a captain. But when it comes to this particular team, although there are many concerns about how the series emerges, for one I think this team is in the same situation as the Dhoni team when they started the first World Cup T20. There are no expectations. This is a big advantage for this party. This is a real advantage for this party. And they have everything they get. The only way is upstairs.And I think this team is to come across a surprise. Because let’s not forget that even though India has not won many series in England, we have always gone there a lot of surprises. Starting with the magic of Chandry (Bhagwath Chandrasekhar) and the victory of the Ajit Wadekar series in 1971, India emerged surprises or two always in England.

Before I let you go, I’ll give you a place I always like to do. Your forecast for series, Coach. Who wins it? And what score?Everything I would like to see this team is to play a good cricket. I’m not a big fan of this game.This is a diplomatic answer, coach. You have to give me a score.Pragmatic answer. You always put people in place. I always give pragmatic answers.
