NEW DELHI: India cricket team achieved a stunning victory against Bangladesh in the second match of the two-Test series played at Green Park stadium in Kanpur. Despite two days of the match being washed out completely due to rain and wet outfield, the team, led by Rohit Sharma and guided by new head coach Gautam Gambhir, managed a remarkable win.
This victory has garnered much praise from former players and experts.
The team played an aggressive style of cricket and set numerous records during the match.
Former Indian wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik highlighted the shift in playing style under the Rohit-Gambhir leadership.
He noted, "They made it uncomfortable for some of the batters because they wanted to play at such a high tempo. I know for a fact that they have to bat out of their comfort zone. And that's what Rohit Sharma-Gautam Gambhir era is gonna be filled with. Push people out of their comfort zone on and off the field. And that will give the results they are looking for."
Karthik described the match as unprecedented. "This Test match is astounding, unprecedented. To beat a team, which came in as a confident team, in under two days. After two days have been washed out completely. Still managing to do it with 45 overs to spare. Very, very cool from the Rohit-Gauti partnership so far," he added.
India's approach under Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir is proving effective, pushing players beyond their usual limits and achieving significant results on the field.
