Gautam Gambhir: Former Indian player Gautam Gambhir hit out at Venkatesh Prasad who criticized KL Rahul, saying that sometimes former players want to be active and that’s why they criticize players like KL Rahul. Explain that Rahul was dropped from the last two Tests of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series against Australia and was also stripped of the vice-captaincy. After the flop show in the Test series, many people including Venkatesh Prasad demanded Rahul’s ouster from the Test team.

However, in the very first match of the ODI series against Australia, Rahul gave a befitting reply to his critics by scoring a half-century and now Lucknow Supergiants mentor Gautam Gambhir has also defended his team captain KL Rahul without naming Venkatesh Prasad. He has given a befitting reply. Gambhir said during a conversation with a sports channel that as far as KL Rahul is concerned, I do not think he is under any kind of pressure. International cricket and IPL are different from each other. Even if you score 1000 runs in IPL and don’t do well in international cricket, you will still face criticism. This is international cricket. After all only 15 players get a chance to play for India. More than 150 players are selected in IPL. So you should not compare IPL and international cricket.

Rahul has scored 4-5 centuries in IPL

In this sequence, Gambhir further said that Rahul has done well in IPL, he has 4-5 centuries in the tournament. You are talking about a player who has scored 4-5 hundreds so far. Last season also he scored a century against Mumbai Indians. We have so many people here. Sometimes former cricketers need some spice to stay active. That’s why you criticize people. According to me, the kind of player KL is, he will not be under any kind of pressure. You cannot win a tournament with one player. 25 players inside the dressing room help you win the tournament.
