Avesh Khan on ‘coach’ Gautam Gambhir

Gautam Gambhir’s main objective is simply winning at all costs and striving to extract 100 per cent out of his players and that is what makes him a ‘team coach’, reckons Avesh Khan. The pacer has played under Gambhir’s mentorship at IPL side Lucknow Super Giants, and he shared a few insights on his style on Friday.

“Whatever I have learned from him, it is about the mindset that you should always look to get the better of your opponent and give your 100 per cent,” Avesh told BCCI.

“In team meetings, as well as one-on-ones, he would speak less but would convey his point as to what is to be done. He would assign tasks and roles to players and he has always been a ‘team coach’, he always wants to win and everyone to give their 100 per cent,” he added.

Gambhir, who was officially unveiled as India’s next head coach earlier this week, will start with an away white-ball series comprising three T20Is and as many ODIs in Sri Lanka from June 26.
