Gautam Gambhir: Gautam Gambhir has become the head coach of the Indian team and he will now remain the coach till the upcoming ICC World Cup 2027 and during this time many ICC trophies are to be played. In such a situation, he would like to prepare a great team so that India can win the trophy.

In such a situation, Gambhir would like to select players in Team India according to the upcoming World Cup 2027, but on one basis, veteran batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma may be left out of this World Cup and they may be shown the way out.

Gautam Gambhir reacted regarding World Cup 2027

After becoming the head coach of the Indian team, Gautam Gambhir's first assignment is the Sri Lanka tour, which will start from July 27 and before that he also answered many questions in a press conference and World Cup 2027 was also included in this series.

Gautam said that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma can not only play in the Champions Trophy but if they maintain their fitness, they can also play in the World Cup to be held in 2027 but it will all depend on their fitness.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli may be on leave

Actually, it seems very possible for Rohit and Virat to play in the World Cup 2027. Virat's fitness is very good in the current era but it will also have to be seen what kind of form he will have in the coming three years. He could not perform well in the recently concluded T20 World Cup 2024 and could play only one innings in the final.

Apart from Virat, if we talk about Rohit Sharma, then fitness is the biggest problem for him and it will be interesting to see how fit he remains for the next three years. In such a situation, if both these players are not able to maintain their fitness, then they may be dropped from the team and Gautam Gambhir may hardly give them a chance in the World Cup.

Indian team can be like this

Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shreyas Iyer, Sai Sudarshan, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper/captain), KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, Mukesh Kumar.
