Gambhir said – “the biggest mistake that Indian cricket has made” as he slams workload management

Former India opener Gautam Gambhir believes that one of the major reasons for India’s poor performance in the last two World Cups is the frequent breaks. That is taken by top players including skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah and others.

Gambhir said on Star Sports-

“They got to play together. I think the biggest mistake that Indian cricket has made in the last two World Cups has been that these guys have not played enough cricket together. Tell me how many times have we got the best playing 11 on the park ?”

“We haven’t, only during the World Cup we decided to have the best playing 11, but unfortunately, that was never the best playing 11. So these guys have to play enough of white ball cricket, especially for the 50 overs World Cup together irrespective of whether they want to take a break from the T20 or from the IPL.”
