Gautam Gambhir’s appointment is a Parchi case, says ex-Pakistan cricketer

Former Pakistan cricketer Tanveer Ahmed has criticized the appointment of Gautam Gambhir as head coach of the Indian cricket team, calling it a ‘Parchi’ case.
The term ‘Parchi’ suggests selection based on connections or recommendations rather than merit.
Tanveer took to the social media platform ‘X,’ where he argued that VVS Laxman was a more deserving candidate for the head coach position.
“VVS Laxman should have become the head coach of the Indian team because he has been with the India B team as coach for a long time. It seems as if Gautam Gambhir’s appointment is a ‘Parchi’ case,” Tanveer posted.
Noteably, Gambhir recently served as the Kolkata Knight Riders’ mentor in the recent edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Prior to that, Gambhir had mentored Lucknow Super Giants during IPL 2022 and 2023 and helped them reach the playoffs in both editions.
Gautam Gambhir played a pivotal role in India’s success in the 2007 World T20 and ICC Men’s ODI World Cup 2011, top-scoring in the finals of both tournaments.
