Delhi: A new chapter for the Indian cricket team is going to start, and in this era of change, the responsibility of the team has once again been entrusted to experienced veteran VVS Laxman. According to a report by Revsportz, Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir has left from England to take care of his ailing mother. In his absence, VVS Laxman, head of the National Cricket Academy (NCA), will monitor the preparations for the team.

Laxman has already reached London, where he is also present for India’s UK visit to UK. Now they will lead the preparations for the upcoming Test series against England, until Gambhir joins the team again. It is noteworthy that Laxman has earlier taken over the team in the T20 series against South Africa. However, it is not clear in the report how long Gambhir will join the team again.

Clarke gave India cheer, ‘new beginning’ under the leadership of Gill-Pant

Meanwhile, former Australia captain Michael Clarke has praised India, saying that the team is in ‘safe hands’ and there is so much talent in it that she can beat England. However, he also said that it would be interesting to see how this team, which appears inexperienced, performs in the challenging circumstances of England.

The five -Test series against England will start in Headingley from June 20. The series is considered to be the beginning of a new era in the Test history of India, where the team will be commanded by Shubman Gill, while Rishabh Pant has been made the vice -captain.
