As of now, there is uncertainty surrounding captain Rohit Sharma's availability for the first Test. Reports suggest that Rohit and his wife Ritika Sajdeh are expecting their second child, which may impact his participation in the first two Tests.
The series loss against New Zealand has brought a lot of criticism for both Gambhir and Rohit. A recent report also claimed that Gambhir might lose his job as the Test coach if India are unable to put up a good performance Down Under. The same report claims that Gambhir can be replaced by VVS Laxman as the Test coach.
Recently, the BCCI had also held a six-hour long review meeting with Gambhir, Rohit Sharma and chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar, for the post-mortem of the India-New Zealand series, which saw Rohit and co, being whitewashed at home.
Gambhir's start as India's head coach has gotten off to a rocky start as India first lost the ODI series against Sri Lanka after a gap of 27 years, and then the side was whitewashed in a Test series at home (series comprising 3 or more matches). It is safe to say that the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is very crucial for the former India opening batter.
