Team India is currently down 1-2 in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, which has been a difficult moment for the team. It has now been reported that the performances on the pitch are also being mirrored off the pitch. According to the sources, the conduct of one of its support staff members has upset the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
The board is not amused by the fact that the support staff member, who is led by Gautam Gambhir, is reportedly accompanied by one of his personal aides while on national duty.
It has been discovered that the individual in question had access to the field of play (FOP) during the Indian Premier League, when he would confidently enter the arena wearing a team shirt following matches.
As reported by NDTV, “a top source in Australia says his presence in the box dedicated to BCCI members hasn’t been appreciated.”
The dressing room is where everything that occurs there should remain: Irfan Pathan
WV Raman and Irfan Pathan, two former cricket players for India, have also voiced their disapproval of the dressing room atmosphere that is reportedly present in the Indian squad. On the microblogging site X, now known as Twitter, Pathan expressed his opinion that the discussions and chats that take place in the dressing room should never be made public.
“Anything that occurs in the dressing room remains in the dressing room!” On Wednesday January 1, Pathan posted a tweet.
Previously, there were rumours that the Indian team’s head coach, Gautam Gambhir, was dissatisfied with the team’s performance during the series and had had enough. When the fifth and final Test of the series begins on Friday, January 3 at Sydney’s famous Sydney Cricket Ground, it will determine Gambhir’s India’s future.
