After helping Kolkata Knight Riders win the IPL in 2024, Gautam Gambhir was appointed as the head coach of the Indian team. There were doubts if the former cricketer would align well with the present ones but as things stand, things have been smooth. Gambhir was spotted having lengthy chats with Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma ahead of the ODI series against Sri Lanka and in the T20Is, he guided a young India team to success.

Despite all the positives, former cricketer Joginder Sharma isn’t convinced and expects Gambhir to part ways with the national team before his contract ends in 2027. Explaining his views, Joginder noted that the southpaw makes certain decisions that don’t match with others and it leads to controversy. The 40-year-old clarified that it is not just about Virat Kohli but Gambhir may have issues with others during his stint.

“Gautam Gambhir is the one to manage the team, but I believe that Gautam Gambhir will not be able to stay for a long time. This is because Gautam Gambhir has his own decisions. It might happen that he has a disagreement with a player. I am not talking about Virat Kohli. Many times, Gautam Gambhir's decisions are such that others do not like them,” Joginder said in Subhankar Mishra’s podcast.

“Gautam Gambhir speaks directly. He is not someone who will go to anyone. Gautam Gambhir is not a person who flatters. We are the ones who give him credit. He does his work, does it sincerely, and does it with great honesty,” Joginder said.

Notably, India’s first ODI against Sri Lanka ended on level terms. The second match of the series will be played on August 4 in Colombo.
