The Indian team had to face a crushing defeat during the Border Gavaskar Trophy on the Australia tour. Team India lost the series 1-3. Now former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwari has severely criticized India's performance. He has taken the team's head coach Gautam Gambhir by the arm. He attacks Gambhir and blames him for the defeat. He especially created a sensation by calling Gambhir a 'hypocritical' person. Manoj Tiwari did not stop here, he also made many serious allegations against the head coach of the Indian team. Tiwari said that the kind of coaching that was expected was not seen.
Manoj Tiwari lashed out at Gambhir In the 6 months since Gautam Gambhir's arrival, the Indian team has faced several embarrassing records. First losing the ODI series at 27 against Sri Lanka, then facing a whitewash in the home Test series against New Zealand and now after the recent defeat against Australia, Manoj Tiwary is very angry with Gambhir. Former Indian cricketer said that 'Gautam Gambhir is a heretic. He doesn't do what he says. Rohit Sharma has been pushed forward after the defeat.'
During a Ranji Trophy match in 2015, Manoj Tiwary playing for Bengal and Gambhir playing for Delhi had a heated brawl in the ongoing match.
Morne also questioned Morkel Manoj Tiwary also raised questions on Morne Morkel. Manoj said 'What is the use of a bowling coach who agrees with everything the head coach says? He agrees with everything he says. Morne Morkel came from Lucknow Super Giants. While Abhishek Nair was with him in Kolkata Knight Riders. Gambhir knows that both of them will not go against him.'
Manoj Tiwari accused Gambhir of taking credit for the win.
Accused Gambhir of credit theft Manoj Tiwari also accused Gautam Gambhir of stealing credit. According to him, the PR of the head coach of the Indian team creates an atmosphere due to which he gets credit for every success. For this, Manoj Tiwari also gave the example of Kolkata Knight Riders. Tiwari said that 'Gambir did not single-handedly win KKR the IPL. We all performed together as a unit and only then did we win the title. Jacques Kallis, Sunil Narine and I made important contributions. But the credit goes to him alone.'
'Rohit-Gambir can't work together' Manoj Tiwary believes that all is not well between Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir. Due to the rift between the two, the atmosphere in the team is bad. He lashed out and said that there is no comparison between the success of the two. Rohit is a World Cup winning captain, while Gambhir's success is limited only to winning the IPL title. He believes this is the reason why they cannot work together.'
