Did Gambhir take revenge on rishabh Pant?

If there is an indispensable player in the indian cricket team, it is rishabh Pant. rishabh pant, who came into the indian team as an aggressive wicketkeeper-batsman after Dhoni, has achieved various achievements in Test cricket. Similarly, although rishabh pant has been playing brilliantly in t20 cricket, he has not been able to achieve much in one-day cricket. However, it is true that rishabh pant is not given enough opportunities in one-day cricket. pant, who has played 43 Tests and 76 one-day matches for the indian team so far, has played in just 31 matches in one-day cricket. He has scored a total of 871 runs. This includes one century and five half-centuries. rishabh Pant's average is 33. When rishabh pant was out of action due to an accident, KL rahul acted as wicketkeeper and scored runs.
Due to this, rahul is given priority. Also, it is said that since the current team has two left-handed bowling all-rounders, Jadeja and Axar Patel, rishabh pant could not be included as a third left-handed batsman in the middle order. But cricket experts have opined that the real reason is different. In the Test cricket held in Australia, pant lost his game unnecessarily by a shot. Gambhir objected to this. He advised him to play as he suited the situation. But rishabh pant did not listen to him. In this situation, pant played aggressively in the last innings of the last Test match and scored runs.

Pant played like a t20 cricketer and scored 61 runs in 33 balls. If pant had kept a little more calm in this, he could have scored a big score. Gambhir has condemned this game. But pant, who was unhappy with this, spoke as if the coach was not allowing him to play his normal game. This is why Gambhir is currently angry with Pant. Because of this, Gambhir is putting up a barrier to include pant in the one-day cricket team.
