NEW DELHI: Gautam Gambhir's tenure as Team India's head coach began with a promising start when Suryakumar Yadav and his team dominated Sri Lanka 3-0 in the three-match T20I series. However, Gambhir's optimism quickly turned to disappointment as Sri Lanka made a strong comeback, winning the ODI series 2-0.
On a turning pitch in Colombo, where the ODIs were played, Indian batsmen struggled despite having star players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the lineup.
