Former India player Aakash Chopra has questioned how head coach Gautam Gambhir’s reported dressing room talk was leaked ahead of the fifth Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) 2024-25 Test. He pointed out that Team India are like a family where everyone should trust each other.
India suffered a 184-run defeat in the fourth Test against Australia in Melbourne and trail 1-2 in the five-match series. The final game of the tour will start in Sydney on Friday, January 3.
In a video shared on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra,’ the cricketer-turned-commentator noted that Gambhir’s dressing room talk being leaked is a breach of trust.
Aakash Chopra opined that the informant should be found out and shamed. He added that the culprit needed to be made to understand that such actions wouldn’t be tolerated, as it’s not good for Indian cricket.
In the same video, Aakash Chopra pointed out that such leaks could lead to a divided and insecure dressing room.
The former India opener opined that senior players are generally responsible for such leaks.
Aakash Chopra noted that Gautam Gambhir didn’t name any player he was unhappy with. He added that maybe fingers were being pointed at the shots played by Rishabh Pant, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Virat Kohli.
