Gautam Gambhir Press Conference Live Updates: Hello and welcome!
The BCCI has scheduled a pre-departure press conference featuring newly appointed Test captain Shubman Gill and head coach Gautam Gambhir ahead of India's five-Test series in England. This marks captain Gill's first media interaction since being handed the captaincy to India's Test team, taking over from now retired Rohit Sharma.
The five-Test tour of England will require India to play without stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who recently announced their retirements from the format, following Ravichandran Ashwin's decision to quit in December 2024.
Head coach Gambhir and Gill will speak to the press ahead of their departure to England, where the first Test will be played at Headingley in Leeds and marks the commencement of the 2025-27 World Test Championship cycle.
Gambhir had also engaged with the press ahead of the side's tour of Australia in November last year, but was not joined by the then captain Rohit Sharma. The reason for Rohit's absence was due to the birth of his second child in November, 2024.
India A will play the second unofficial Test against England Lions in Northampton from June 6. Captain Gill will play no part in it.
