Gautam Gambhir confident of turning the tables in Test cricket – Cricket News Update
Despite having a poor series with the bat against New Zealand at home, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c749.
The left-handed batsman managed to score just 58 runs in the two matches, drawing criticism from some of the former Indian cricketers, who believe that the Men in Blue should try a new opening pair.
Gambhir has been a genuine match-winner for India over the last five years but failed to perform when the going got tough for his side during the Test series against England and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 in the previous season.
The cricketer from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 however, performed exceptionally well in the fifth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) and also in the limited-over series against Sri Lanka, prior to taking on the Kiwis at home.
Gambhir admits that he has not been doing great in the five-day format of late but hopes to turn the tables soon.
"I scored a century and two fifties in five one-day internationals against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754 Tests, but it is just a question of time before I get a big one."
The 30-year-old cricketer, who led Kolkata Knight Riders to their first title triumph in the IPL this year, has already scored more than nine thousand runs at the game’s ultimate level, with the help of 20 centuries. Gambhir is one of the finest openers
of the current era, who is also one of the leading contenders to take over India’s leadership once http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028 decides to call it a day from the international sport.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 are scheduled to play a mixture of Tests, ODIs and T20 Internationals this year and the left-handed opener believes that his side should adjust accordingly, being professionals.
"We need to adapt to all three formats of the game in different conditions. I am feeling comfortable with my batting form, I am middling the ball and like I said I it is only a question of time before I get my next Test hundred," he said.
