00:00Shahid Afridi, as you all know, is present in England at the World Championship of Legends

00:07or whatever it is, he is playing the tournament of ex-cricketers.

00:11And in that, the Indian media also keeps asking questions to Shahid Afridi,

00:17the Pakistani media also.

00:19So, Shahid Bhai's recent statement has come related to Gautam Gambhir

00:23and his appointment as the new head coach of the Indian cricket team.

00:28So, on that, Shahid Bhai has said that it's a good development for Gautam Gambhir,

00:33it's a major and huge opportunity.

00:36And now we will have to see how he will avail this opportunity.

00:39Because becoming the head coach of the Indian cricket team is not a small job.

00:44It's a big deal.

00:45Plus, you see, who is before you?

00:47Rahul Dravid, who has done a lot for Team India.

00:49And on what note has he said goodbye to Team India by winning the World T20.

00:56So, that legacy has to be continued.

00:58So, Shahid Afridi says that we will have to see how Gautam Gambhir

01:03brings his management forward in this job.

01:06Gautam Gambhir has no coaching experience in domestic cricket.

01:09He has no coaching experience in international cricket.

01:12Yes, Gautam Gambhir kept the mentorship of Lucknow Supergiants with him for 2 years,

01:17in 2022.

01:18That came till the playoffs.

01:19After that, in 2024, he became the mentor of KKR.

01:22He was in Lucknow Supergiants well.

01:25Shahid Afridi says that it feels like Shahid Afridi has brought him up in KKR.

01:29Gautam Gambhir becomes the mentor of KKR and wins the IPL in 2024.

01:34After that, during the same IPL, BCCI had started contacting Gautam Gambhir

01:40to become the new head coach of India.

01:43Anyway, he has become one.

01:45Shahid Afridi says that he has heard some interviews of Gautam Gambhir.

01:50Gautam Gambhir has a very positive knowledge about cricket.

01:53There is absolutely no doubt that Gautam Gambhir has an extensive knowledge of cricket.

01:58Technical wise as well as other things.

02:03Like what happened in a particular match, this and that.

02:06Technicality is that you can tell the batters that you are making a mistake here.

02:09You can tell the bowlers that you can improve this thing of yours.

02:13You can become more lethal.

02:14Fielding drills, all that is in front of you.

02:17In KKR, Sunil Narayan's example is in front of everyone.

02:22That was not going on for the last few seasons.

02:24And in this season, after Gautam Gambhir's arrival,

02:27God knows what Gautam Gambhir has said about Sunil Narayan.

02:31That what he did this year in IPL is in front of you.

02:36So, as they say, he has a knowledge about cricket.

02:42He has positivity as well.

02:43And Gautam Gambhir, as per Shahid Afridi,

02:48his statements, the way he talks,

02:50whatever is in his mind, he says it straight forwardly.

02:53That this is how it is.

02:54Gautam Gambhir does not know words.

02:57He is not a wordsmith.

02:59He does not play with words.

03:02He is a 2 plus 2 is equal to 4 type of a person.

03:05He does not say that do this to 2,

03:08do this to the other 2,

03:10and then leave the place of 4.

03:11He says 2 plus 2 is equal to 4.

03:13And that is why, let me tell you another interesting thing.

03:16I have read in many places that

03:18many Indian cricket fans think that

03:20Gautam Gambhir may not be able to complete his tenure.

03:23They have this doubt.

03:25And why do they have this doubt?

03:26Because they think that

03:27the type of a person Gautam Gambhir is,

03:29another head coach had come before him

03:32and he did not complete his tenure.

03:34Meaning, he was on the side in the middle

03:37and that was Anil Kumble.

03:38So, Gautam Gambhir thinks,

03:41those cricket fans think that

03:43the type of a person Gautam Gambhir is,

03:47he will make a lot of changes in the team.

03:49You will get to see a lot of things.

03:51There is one page,

03:53there is one thing on which Gautam Gambhir

03:55plus Rohit Sharma,

03:56there is only one page.

03:58And what is that?

03:59Personal milestones do not matter.

04:02You have done 30,

04:04you have done 40,

04:05you have done 50,

04:06you have done 100.

04:07Those runs that you have done,

04:09they contribute towards the team's win.

04:13There is no place for personal milestones

04:16in the team media.

04:17Rohit Sharma had said the same thing

04:19and Gautam Gambhir had also said the same thing

04:21that the aim is to win India.

04:23The aim is not that you have done 50,

04:26the aim is not that you have done 100,

04:28the aim is not that you have taken 5 wickets.

04:30No.

04:31You have taken one wicket

04:32but I have won one of your wickets.

04:35So, you have done your job.

04:37This is the difference in mentality.

04:41Because when you live up to personal milestones,

04:46you cannot become a big match winner.

04:48A match winner becomes like Rohit Sharma

04:50who is a genuine match winner.

04:51Why?

04:52He has never looked at personal milestones.

04:54Sometimes he himself says that

04:56I have never even seen the scoreboard,

04:57what is going on?

04:58Unless and until he has to calculate the run rate

05:01of a particular team.

05:02Otherwise, as per Rohit Sharma,

05:04I have never even seen the scoreboard,

05:06what is going on?

05:07I have never even seen that

05:08I have been out,

05:09how many have been out?

05:10How many have not been out?

05:11He had scored 92.

05:12He had scored 90-92 in the World T20.

05:16He could not have done a century.

05:18He could have done it.

05:19There were so many overs against Australia.

05:21He had scored a lot of goals.

05:23He could have done a century.

05:25In the same way, he has been out in Mar Dhaad.

05:27So, that personal milestone is behind.

05:30The country is ahead,

05:31the people are ahead,

05:32victory is ahead.

05:33This is the motto of Rohit Sharma.

05:35This is the motto of Gautam Kabir.

05:37And because of this,

05:38you will see a different approach

05:41of this team.

05:44Because the mentality of the captain

05:46and the head coach is very different.

05:49Because of this,

05:50I think Team India

05:51has become a more lethal combination.

05:54Because now,

05:55they don't have to look at the personal milestones.

05:58How many runs are there?

05:59This and that.

06:00It is a genuine match winner.

06:01Put it in.

06:02They will do it like this.

06:03You will see.

06:04They will do it like this.

06:05It is a genuine match winner.

06:06Let's try.

06:07Let's see what they do.

06:08This is the mentality of Rohit Sharma and Gautam.

06:11And both know how to groom.

06:13Let me tell you this.

06:14Both know how to groom.

06:16How to lift a fallen boy.

06:18Both know this very well.

06:20Rishabh,

06:21Rohit took him to his house before the World T20.

06:24During the IPL.

06:25This was in 2024.

06:26He fed him.

06:27Asked him about his health.

06:29Asked him about batting.

06:30Asked him about fitness.

06:31After asking all the questions,

06:32he was told to get ready.

06:34You are going to play the World T20.

06:36This is how he lifts.

06:38And Rishabh,

06:39I have come in front of you.

06:41The obvious thing about Rishabh's name.

06:44No one was so sure.

06:46Even in the IPL.

06:47Whether he will be selected in Team India or not.

06:49He was selected.

06:50Then he saw.

06:51He also gave good performances.

06:53This is Team India.

06:55That's it for this video.

06:57Take care of yourself.

06:58See you in the next video.

06:59Peace out.
