'This is how you have to be,': Ex-PAK Player Urges Gautam Gambhir Wisdom to Save Suffering Pakistan

Pakistan 's most recent cricket performance has been depressing for their nation, showing a declining spiral in their game. The series against Bangladesh brought attention to their difficulties; defeats showed a notable drop in form after failing to make a mark in the past 2 ICC events. 

Pakistan 's meagre 146 in the second innings against Bangladesh 's commanding 565 set the tone for a one-sided loss by a startling 10 wickets in the first Test. The follow-up Test only made their problems worse; while there were flashes of a possible return but led to another loss by six wickets. 

With constant failures and a lack of cohesiveness, Pakistan 's poor batting and bowling performances have generated questions. The team's flaws call for a review and introspection to fix the problems afflicting their game because they keep disappointing their supporters after poor management from the Pakistan Cricket Board and the alleged internal conflicts within the team.

Danish Kaneria calls for a tough coach like Gautam Gambhir to lead the Pakistan cricket team after their poor state on and off the pitch

Suggesting the necessity of a strong coach like Gautam Gambhir to negotiate the team's current challenges, Danish Kaneria has demanded a clear and forceful attitude to coaching in the Pakistan cricket squad. 

Stressing the requirement of responsibility and performance-based leadership, Kaneria underlined in an exclusive interview with the Republic Media Network the need to follow a captain and avoid continuous changes. 

Citing the great examples of coaches like Rahul Dravid with the Indian squad, he underlined the need for good leadership and judgement. Kaneria praised Gambhir for his straightforward and open style, stressing in coaching and leadership positions the need for power and decisiveness. Kaneria told Republic: 

“Everything is taken for granted; that's why the downfall of Pakistan cricket has gone through making captains changing captain that will not work to stick to your captain stick with him. 

Okay, I have made him the captain for one year. I will ask him. I will ask him to give me an answer after one year. Nobody will touch him you have full support from me, but you need to perform. If you don't perform, you go out, so that's the thing you have to make tough decisions. Why if you don't make tough decisions, things will not work. Why today other teams are doing so well Why is the Indian team is doing so well? They had a Rahul Dravid who worked with the team very well now they have Gautham Gambir fantastic cricketer and fantastic guy the the way he reacts he tells on the face he doesn't go back and do backbiting; he's on the face straight away. This is how you have to be. You have to be strong, and like a strong person, you have to make the decision on the face not at the back”

Pakistan Test Team captain Shan Masood failed to lead his team to glory against Bangladesh. It is reported that there have been many clashes inside Pakistan 's dressing room. However, Pakistan will look to host the ICC Champions Trophy in 2025, but it is not yet confirmed whether the Indian cricket team will be travelling to the country or not as there have been many security concerns.
