T20 World Cup 2021: India Haven't Done That Well In Multi-Country Events – Sunil Gavaskar

Legendary Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar has said that under Virat Kohli, India have done pretty good in the home and away bilateral series. However, they have failed in the multi-country events.

India had a horrible start in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 as they faced a 10-wicket defeat against arch-rivals Pakistan, the second match was also a poor one for the team as they lost against New Zealand by 8 wickets which eventually resulted in India getting knocked out of the semi-finals race.

Speaking on Sports Today after India’s exit Gavaskar lauded Virat Kohli, the captain, for doing good in the bilateral series. He stated:

“When you look at bilateral series, whether it’s at home or overseas, India have won most of them. But India haven’t done that well in multi-country events. You’ve got to balance that out. India have won more matches under Virat Kohli than under any other captain that I can think of.

You Will Also Cherish A T20I Series Win Over England And West Indies – Sunil Gavaskar

Gavaskar further added that he would always prefer an ICC trophy over a bilateral series win. However, he said that bilateral series wins against quality sides like Australia is also as big as winning a World Cup. Sunil Gavaskar also said that winning a T20I series against England and West Indies is something he will cherish. He asserted:

“I would prefer an ICC trophy because a multi-country event championship is something that you would cherish. But it also depends on which bilateral series that you are talking about.

“If you win a bilateral series against Australia, then that’s also as big as maybe winning the World Cup. Similarly, you will also cherish a T20I series win over England and West Indies.”
