On Sunday, Team India achieved the distinction of winning the Champions Trophy after nearly 12 years by defeating New Zealand (Ind vs NZ Final) by four wickets at Dubai International Stadium. Certainly, many more players including captain Rohit Sharma, former captain Virat Kohli, Virat Kohli, Varun Chakraborty contributed to this victory, but in this victory, the strategy of Head Coach Gautam Gambhir (Gautam Gambhir) was also contributed to some big decisions, which remained from the end of the tournament. Gambhir was criticized for all -round and even there were reports of differences with Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar, but Gambhir remained rooted with his decisions. And finally 3 big decisions of Gambhir played a very important role in making Team India champion. Let’s know about these three decisions in turn
1. Feed Akshar Patel at number five
Gambhir took Akshar Patel for batting at number five in the first match against Bangladesh in the league round, many people did not like this decision. Many pundits questioned why the letter is being batting before KL Rahul, but Gautam continued to feed the letter on this number till the finals, keeping this criticism rate. The result was that Akshar scored 109 runs in five matches at an average of 27.25. Although this performance was not extraordinary, but given the situation, it proved very useful in many matches.
2. KL preference on Pant
This was such a decision, which was discussed till the end. And in a way, differences came out with Gautam’s chief selectors. The selection committee selected Rishabh Pant in the team as the first choice wicketkeeper, but Gautam Gambhir fed KL Rahul in the XI. When KL Rahul dripped two catches in the semi -finals against Australia, KL was pricking many eyes. Bahrahar, Gambhir did not change his strategy till the end. Rishabh Pant sat out of the XI throughout the tournament. This was another major decision of Gautam, which played a big role in winning the title.
3. Big bets on Varun Chakraborty
Everyone knows that when the original team of India was declared, Varun Chakraborty was not elected in it. When I got the option to change the team before the ICC dead line, the third opener Yashasvi Jaiswal was excluded and Varun Chakraborty was given a place in the team. Even a class did not like this decision, but in the end, by the end of the tournament, this decision became Gambhir’s trumpcard. Varun proved to be the second most successful bowler after New Zealand’s Matt Henry in the Champions Trophy. Henry took ten wickets, while Varun proved how serious Gautam’s eyes were by taking nine wickets.
