Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma aligned with Gautam Gambhir's ODI plans: Sitanshu Kotak

RAJKOT: India batting coach Sitanshu Kotak has batted away talk of a “communication breakdown” between Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and head coach Gautam Gambhir, insisting the senior batters remain fully plugged into the team’s ODI plans.

“I always see them talking,” Kotak said of Rohit and Kohli.




“They are senior and experienced. They have played so much cricket. So it is very natural for them to talk to the coach and captain. I don’t see any communication gap. They definitely make plans. Now that they’re playing only one format, they want India to win every time they’re there. With the amount of experience they have, they can share a lot of ideas with other players.

“They discuss with Gautam about the ODI format, the matches that we have and our plans for South Africa,” Kotak said.
