In the Test series against Australia, everyone's eyes are not only on the Indian players, people are also keeping an eye on the head coach Gautam Gambhir. Under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir, Team India lost the last Test series by 0-3 and since then there are speculations that if Team India loses in Australia also, then their card can be wiped off. Now former New Zealand fast bowler Simon Doull has said the same thing before the Perth Test. Simon Doull will be seen commentating in the Perth Test and before that he targeted Gautam Gambhir. Dool said that if Team India loses 1-4 to Australia, then Gautam Gambhir may lose his job.

Dool's target on Gambhir

Mike Atherton questioned Simon Doull on the issue of rhetoric between Gambhir and Ponting. On this, Doull said, 'Gambhir's tenure may be less than that of Greg Chappell. Team India needs a coach like Gautam Gambhir at this time. He sits with the player and talks to him and makes him perform well. But this time the task is a little difficult. There is a big series coming up and Gambhir is never going to be friendly with the media. If the result in Australia does not go in his favour, whether 4-1 or 5-0, I don't think he will keep his job.

Serious questions are being raised

Ever since Gautam Gambhir took over the reins of Team India as the head coach, the team's performance has not been anything special. The team lost the ODI series in Sri Lanka and then suffered a crushing 3-0 defeat against New Zealand at its own home. There have also been reports on Gambhir that he has selected such players whom Rohit-Virat did not want in the team, although these reports could not be confirmed. Now everyone's eyes are on Team India's tour of Australia. If Team India wins, Gambhir will get applause and if it loses, he will have to bear the heat.
