Ricky Ponting On Gautam Gambhir: The Indian cricket team has been in the news every day ever since it lost the Test series against New Zealand. First the news came out that nothing was right between Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir, now Gautam Gambhir has said something, on which Ricky Ponting has given a sharp reaction.
Ricky Ponting’s sharp reaction on Gautam Gambhir’s statement
In fact, the war of words between former Australian captain Ricky Ponting and Indian cricket team coach Gautam Gambhir has intensified in the last few days. Ever since Ponting has raised questions on Virat Kohli’s form, Gambhir has advised Ponting to stay away from Indian cricket.
In fact, a few days ago, Ricky Ponting had said that Virat Kohli’s form is worrying because the Indian batsman has scored only two Test centuries in the last five years. Kohli has the potential to bounce back into form and there can be no better place than Australia. On this statement of Ricky Ponting, Gautam Gambhir took a press conference before leaving for Australia. During this, when Gambhir was asked about Ponting’s statement, Gambhir said, what does Ricky Ponting have to do with Indian cricket? I think, Ponting should think about Australian cricket. The most important thing is that, I am not worried about Virat and Rohit.
Now on this statement of Gautam Gambhir, Ricky Ponting said, ‘I was surprised to see Gambhir’s reaction, but I know coach Gautam Gambhir very well, he is of very irritable nature. So I was not at all surprised that it was he who said something. Ponting further said that I had no attack on him. I just said, he has done well in Australia and he would like to come back here. If you ask Virat, I am sure he will be a little worried that he has not been able to score centuries like in previous years.
