India is dominating world cricket across all three formats, currently leading the rankings in each. After their victory over Bangladesh in the first Test of the two-match series, India has further strengthened its position in the World Test Championship points table. Notably, with this Test match, India’s new head coach, Gautam Gambhir, has now been at the helm in all three formats. Let’s take a closer look at Gambhir’s performance so far and review his coaching record to date.
Gambhir joined the Indian team after a successful stint with the Indian Premier League (IPL) team Kolkata Knight Riders, where he guided them to the IPL 2024 title. He will be aiming to achieve more milestones during his tenure as India’s coach.
