New Delhi: With the coordination between head coach Gautam Gambhir and selection committee chairman Ajit Agarkar, an era is going to start in Indian cricket where players will not be able to choose their series on the pretext of workload. Before the Sri Lanka tour, Gambhir and Agarkar talked about some tough decisions in the press conference and explained some things in gestures, which made it clear that a lot of new things are going to happen in Indian cricket. The presence of Gambhir and Agarkar may not look physically impressive, but everyone who knows about Indian cricket knows that both these former cricketers are among those who make clear and tough decisions which do not change easily.

Now excuses won’t work
The goal of both of them now is to prepare a blueprint for the ODI World Cup to be held in 2027. Workload management will be a big challenge for them, but they made it clear that in this case there will be different rules for batsmen and bowlers. When Gambhir was asked about workload management, he said in clear words, ‘I have said earlier that workload management is important for a player like Bumrah. If you are a batsman and are in good form, then you should play all the matches.’
Now Rohit and Virat will play two formats
Gautam Gambhir said, ‘Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will now play only two formats, I hope they will be available to play as many matches as possible.’ Similarly, selection committee chairman Agarkar explained the reason for not appointing Hardik Pandya as the captain of the T20 team. He said, ‘You want a captain who is more likely to play all the matches.’

Now the teammates will decide the captain!
You cannot get a more clear answer to any question than this. Not only this, now in the selection of the captain, not only leadership skills but also the opinion of fellow players will matter. This also became clear from Agarkar’s answer. He said, ‘Why was Surya made the captain? Because he is a player who has been a part of the Indian dressing room for more than a year. You get a lot of feedback from the dressing room.’
