Pakistan Needs Coach Like Gautam Gambhir, Huge Statement Of Former PAK Cricketer

Former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria has suggested that Pakistan’s cricket team needs a coach like Gautam Gambhir. He asserted that Pakistan needs someone strict and focused, to address both on-field and off-field issues after a series of disappointing results.

After a poor performance in the 2023 ODI World Cup, Pakistan brought in Gary Kirsten as their white-ball coach and Jason Gillespie for Test matches. However, this did not bring any improvement in the team and they failed in the recently finished T20 World Cup 2024 as well.

Pakistan recently faced a humiliating 2-0 series defeat to Bangladesh. In an interview with Republic, Danish Kaneria criticized the state of Pakistan cricket. He said that things are often taken for granted, and they frequently change captains.

“Everything is taken for granted; that’s why the downfall of Pakistan cricket has gone through making captains, changing captains. That will not work. Stick to your captain stick with him. “

He further added, “Okay, I have made him the captain for one year. I will ask him. I will ask him to give me an answer after one year. Nobody will touch him you have full support from me, but you need to perform. If you don’t perform, you go out, so that’s the thing you have to make tough decisions. Why, if you don’t make tough decisions, things will not work.”

Kaneria believes that teams like India are successful due to having coaches like Gautam Gambhir, who are direct and upfront with players.

“Why today other teams are doing so well Why is the Indian team is doing so well? They had a Rahul Dravid who worked with the team very well now they have Gautham Gambir, a fantastic cricketer and fantastic guy. The way he reacts, he tells on the face. He doesn’t go back and do backbiting; he’s on the face straight away. This is how you have to be. You have to be strong, and like a strong person, you have to make the decision on the face, not at the back,” said Kaneria.
