Misconception: Gavaskar on ex-captain underperforming to undermine new skipper
Ex-India captain Sunil Gavaskar said there is a “significant misconception” among Indian cricket fans that if a player is replaced as captain, he’ll try to undermine new skipper by not performing to best of his ability. “If...captain has been...replaced and...then doesn’t perform...he could be out of...team altogether,” he added. Shubman Gill replaced Rohit Sharma as India’s Test and ODI captain.
