Seems like there is some leaking from inside the rooms. Guess that happens when a team starts losing but the leaks indicate that the coach a number of players are not getting along. One of the other leaks was that a high profile (not named) BCCI official asked Gambhir to play Sharma for this test but he refused (which is fair as his game is bad).
Leading cricket journalist Peter Lalor from The Australian says the leak against Gambhir appears to have been “strategic”.
“Where there’s smoke there’s fire,” Lalor said on Channel 7.
“Those stories don’t come out of nothing. The fact they’re coming out of the dressing room is a really bad sign. You can contain divisions and sort of conflict within a dressing room only for so long. It seemed like a strategic leak to me. And it’s playing out before our eyes right now.”
