“The expectations are high. The coaches are not on the field, but the captain and the team are on the ground. A new coach will come out with his own ideas and hope it will serve the country in a better sense. If he’s not, then people will raise their finger," Kapil noted.
Kapil Dev compares Gautam Gambhir with Rahul Dravid, Ravi Shastri
Kapil Dev further compared Gautam Gambhir's way of coaching with the methods of former India coaches Ravi Shastri and Rahul Dravid. Kapil believes that Gambhir is a temperamental person and has his own ways of dealing with certain things.
Ravi Shastri is known as a great motivator and India reached several heights under his tenure. With Shastri as head coach, India won two Test series in Australia which is no mean feat.

Gautam Gambhir's tenure as India's head coach hasn't been smooth so far. The Men in Blue lost an ODI series in Sri Lanka after a gap of 27 years. A few months ago, India lost a Test series to New Zealand by a 0-3 margin.
It was India's first Test series defeat at home in 12 years and it brought an end to an incredible run. After the series against New Zealand, India lost to Australia in the away Test series even after winning the first Test.
