For 12 years, India didn't lose a home Test series. That ended in 2024 with 0–3 loss to NZ. Now a 0–2 drubbing by South Africa raises serious questions about Gambhir’s coaching.
India was reduced to 0/2 in 2nd innings. But valiant effort by Shubman & Rahul, & centuries of defiance by Washington & Jadeja ensure India-England series remains alive going into 5th Test.
If the aim was to secure balance, then it feels like a rookie move to pick Washington Sundar over Sai Sudharsan. And Kuldeep Yadav's exclusion defies cricketing logic.
All-rounder did not feature in match which his team, Gujarat Titans, lost to Punjab Kings by 11 runs. Sundar was part of Indian team that won Champions Trophy earlier this month.
The US military operation in Venezuela raises global concern. Experts say that Trump’s action could weaken global legal standards and fuel geopolitical instability.
The latest comment comes as New Delhi and Washington have yet to sign a trade agreement. India’s purchase of Russian oil has reduced, but Moscow remains top source for crude.
If deal goes through, Greece will be 2nd foreign country to procure vehicle. Morocco was first; TATA Group has set up manufacturing unit there with minimum 30 percent indigenous content.
Many of you might think I got something so wrong in National Interest pieces written this year. I might disagree! But some deserve a Mea Culpa. I’d deal with the most recent this week.
The Gambhir doctrine:- Select test team on basis of T20 performance.
Anyway he was made coach on basis of IPL.🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
