BCCI Backs Gambhir Amidst Laxman Rumors, Cites 'Complete Trust'

  • BCCI denies contacting VVS Laxman for head coach role, affirming "complete trust" in Gautam Gambhir.
  • Earlier PTI report suggested informal contact with Laxman after India's 0-2 Test loss to South Africa.
  • Laxman reportedly uninterested, content as Head of Cricket at Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru.
  • Gambhir faces pressure due to poor Test results at home, including 0-3 vs New Zealand and 0-2 vs South Africa.
  • Gambhir's contract runs until 2027 Cricket World Cup; T20 World Cup is his next major task.

Why It Matters: BCCI reaffirms faith in Gautam Gambhir as head coach, dismissing VVS Laxman speculation despite Test losses.
