Currently, the mentor for the Kolkata Knight Riders, the two-time IPL winning captain had spoken in a video uploaded by Sportskeeda Cricket where he🌳 revealed that results will dictate where a side would be coming up short.
“Everything boils down to whether your team is winning matches or not. If your team is winning, then no one talks about it, if you lose you are criticised for it. You try to narrow down the reasons why the team is losing and also every player’s game is different. What ex-players can do or what Maxwell can do, Virat might not be able to do that,” said Gambhir.Stay updated with the latest from IPL 2024, including top contenders for the vai de bet:IPL 2024 Orange Cap and vai de bet:IPL 2024 Purple Cap.

The former KKR skipper also highlighted the need for players who provide something unique to add to the variety of the team rather than making the team too predictable.He added,” If you have a team where everyone plays the same way, then you can score 300 but also be all out for 30 as well. A key aspect of a good team is that you have different kinds of players and more importantly, your team can win. If you’re playing with a 100-strike rate, then maybe that is good enough. If you’re hitting at 180 strike rate and your team loses, then no one talks about it, that’s the reality”.READ MORE: ‘Mil Gaya’: After Rinku Singh, SRH All-rounder Becomes Latest to Receive Virat Kohli’s🍃 Bat
The former India opener reckons that strike rate does have an important role but also emphasises the need to take into account other factors like the conditions, match situation and others.
