Yuvraj Singh pokes fun at Gautam Gambhir for 'not smiling' in latest Instagram post

Former Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir is one of the best batsmen that India has ever produced. The southpaw, who retired from all forms of cricket in December 2018, is now into his second innings of sorts as a politician. Gautam Gambhir is known for his profound nature on and off the field. Gautam Gambhir was mostly spotted sporting a straight face during the course of his playing career. In fact, even after the 38-year-old hung his boots, his habit of not smiling much has seemingly not changed.

Gautam Gambhir wrote, "Prince the emoji is trolling me just like you do always,” Gautam Gambhir contradicts Yuvraj Singh's statement about coaching credentials Recently, Yuvraj Singh had criticized the appointment of Vikram Rathour as India's batting coach. Yuvraj Singh also questioned Rathour's ability to guide Indian players in T20 cricket. Yuvraj Singh went on to question his credentials, saying that he has just played six Tests and seven ODIs for India between 1996 and 1997. Yuvraj Singh reckoned that the current coach doesn’t have enough experience in that format.

The southpaw said that it is not necessary to have huge experience to be a good coach. In a Star Sports’ show Cricket Connected, Gautam Gambhir said that it is important for a selector to have an experience of international cricket. However, the same doesn’t go for the coach to be successful. He added that one can probably just have a different T20 batting coach, specifically for that particular format. Gautam Gambhir further said that no coach can teach a batsman how to hit a lap shot or a reverse lap shot. Gautam Gambhir added that if someone is trying to do that to a player, he is harming him more than actually making him a better player. Gautam Gambhir believes that the coach’s work is just to make a player relaxed and give them the liberty to express themselves on the field. He reckoned that a coach in the T20 format helps declutter the batsman's mind and makes them play big shots wisely.
