Gautam Gambhir offers a stop to the rumors that Rishabh Pant's hundreds

When questioned about the positives of the first Test loss to England, India's head coach Gautam Gambhir looked unimpressed to praise individual genius like Rishabh Pant's twin hundreds, stating that it all comes down to outcomes, which his team was unable to attain.

Gambhir, who never holds back when answering questions about how it felt to see vice skipper Pant's spectacular knocks that eventually failed to change the outcome of the match for India, responded in a pretty confrontational manner.

"There are still three hundred years left. They are also quite beneficial. He responded to a direct query about Pant with a single sentence: "Thank you."

Gambhir responded, "I would have liked if you said there was a hundred from Yashasvi (Jaiswal), hundred from Shubman (Gill) on debut as captain," when asked about the overall positives.

"To be honest, five centuries in a Test match is a fantastic start, especially considering that KL (Rahul) had a hundred and Rishabh had two hundreds. Additionally, he said, "I hope the question could have been better."

However, if the outcome is a loss, the coach stated that individual performances are not very important. India set England a challenging target of 371 but lost by five wickets.

We also had a fifer from Jasprit Bumrah, which is another fantastic plus. In the end, it all comes down to the fact that we go out there and get the outcomes," he stated.

"Yes, individual performances are strong, but we still want our top six and seven players from this Test match to make those massive runs. However, you go out there to win a Test match in the end.

Regretfully, it was not the outcome. He continued, "So we take it on the chin and go on."
