Team India got a historic victory as Rishabh Pant hit a four at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. Historic because the Indian team won this match in just two and a half days. Only 35 overs could be bowled on the first day of this Test, after which not a single over could be bowled on the second and third days. Despite this, Team India defeated Bangladesh in the last two days. This victory of the Indian team brought a smile on the faces of every player and fan, but most of all this victory was very special for Gautam Gambhir. That's because with this victory his 20 year old wound also got healed. Let us tell you what is this matter after all?

Gautam Gambhir's 20 year old 'wound' healed

As soon as Team India hoisted the victory flag in Kanpur, Gautam Gambhir won his first Test series as head coach. However, the Test series was very bad for Gautam Gambhir as a player. Gambhir made his Test debut against Australia in 2004. In that series between India and Australia, Team India lost 1-2 at its own home. However, Gambhir got a chance to play only one match in that series. He played in the Brabourne Test which was won by Team India but Gambhir could score only 4 runs in the two innings of that match. But his Test debut as a head coach has been amazing and he has won a clean sweep in the very first series.

2⃣-0⃣

A memorable test victory #TeamIndia win the 2nd Test by 7 wickets and win the series

Rohit Sharma also saluted Gautam Gambhir after the victory. Rohit said that he has played a lot of cricket with Gautam Gambhir. His mentality is that he allows players to play freely. These are still early days but the beginning is amazing.

'Serious' challenge lies ahead

The Indian team has now become stronger in the points table of the World Test Championship. He is at number 1 position. But the real test of Gautam Gambhir will begin now. Team India now has to play 8 test matches before the World Test Championship final. These test matches are also from the teams that won the World Test Championship. Team India now has to play a three-match Test series against New Zealand and after that the Indian team will play a five-match Test series on Australia tour.
