India head coach Gautam Gambhir is set to have a candid conversation with captain Rohit Sharma soon. This comes after a free-wheeling chat between Gambhir and Virat Kohli, where the two discussed various topics, including Gambhir’s near century in the 2011 ODI World Cup final and Kohli’s journey as Test captain, which began when he was just 25.
During the light-hearted conversation, Gambhir teased Kohli about what to ask Rohit in their upcoming chat. Kohli humorously suggested asking Rohit if he managed to eat his soaked almonds in the morning. Gambhir added to the banter by jokingly asking if Rohit will show up on time for the interview, turning 11 AM into 11 PM.
This interview with Rohit will come just before the start of the IND vs BAN Test series, Gambhir’s first home assignment as head coach. India’s Test team, including veterans Kohli and Rohit, gathered in Chennai on September 12 for a preparatory camp. With 10 upcoming Test matches and a potential World Test Championship final on the horizon, the team is preparing for an intense season ahead.
