BCCI to review India’s England T20I series defeat

India lost a five‑match T20I series in England 4‑0, marking the first time the side has been white‑washed in a bilateral T20I series of three or more games. The defeat also saw India slip from the No. 1 spot in the ICC T20I rankings for the first time in four years. In response, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced a review meeting to assess the performance of head coach Gautam Gambhir, captain Shreyas Iyer and the wider coaching staff. Reports indicate that at least one member of Gambhir’s support team may leave, and that Gambhir’s contract runs until 2027 but is now under scrutiny. The review will be held after the England tour ends, with the Indian side slated to play a three‑match ODI series before a subsequent series against Zimbabwe. Media commentary has suggested the losses stem from adaptation issues in overseas conditions and the influence of IPL‑based selections, but the BCCI’s formal assessment will determine any personnel changes.
