New Delhi : It is generally believed that if a player has more experience of playing international cricket then he can prove to be a good coach. But the thinking of Gautam Gambhir, former India opener batsman, is a bit different. He has said that the experience of international cricket is not necessary to become a successful batting coach in the T20 format. The coach's job is to help the players play with positive mindset.
Cricketer-turned-politician Gautam Gambhir said that there is no need for a separate batting coach for T20 cricket. He said that it is not that if a person has not played enough cricket or does not have experience of playing international cricket then he cannot become a successful T20 batting coach. In the shortest format of cricket, the job of a coach is only to keep you positive so that you can show your natural game.
Gambhir said that a coach cannot teach you how to play lap shots or reverse lat shots. However, he definitely said that if you have been a successful player, it can help to become a better selector. So to become a successful coach, it is not necessary to have played a lot of cricket, but it is necessary to become a selector. He did all these things in the Star Sports show Cricket Connected.
Let us tell you that Gautam Gambhir's T20 career was quite brilliant. When India won the T20 World Cup for the first time in 2007, they played a very good innings in that match. At the same time, he was very successful as a captain in IPL. Under his captaincy, the Kolkata Knight Riders had won this league title twice.
