With the Sri Lanka series being the first assignment for Gautam Gambhir as head coach, let’s take a look at the details of the pre-departure press conference.
The newly appointed India’s head coach, Gautam Gambhir, is going to hold a press conference before heading to Sri Lanka for 3 T20Is and 3 ODIs. This will be Gambhir’s first project as the head coach of India and also his first pre-departure press conference as India’s coach. Along with Gambhir, chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar will also be present.
Speaking more about Gambhir, there is no doubt that the former left-handed batter will be under everyone’s eyes, especially since India recently won the T20 World Cup and also clinched the Zimbabwe series by a 4-1 margin. The team will look to maintain their momentum, especially with many home games lined up after the Sri Lanka series. It is noteworthy to mention that along with Gambhir, KKR’s fielding coach, Ryan ten Doeschate, will also be a deputy on the Sri Lanka tour.
