Gautam Gambhir exposed! BCCI bans India head coach from…
India head coach Gautam Gambhir has come under the radar of the BCCI. This is because he travelled with his personal assistant during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 and now the governing body is all set to take a huge action against the coach.
Gaurav Arora, the PA of Gautam Gambhir, had access to areas that were there only for team officials, selectors, and players. The reports claimed that he also travelled in the same car with selectors and was present in the BCCI's hospitality box in Adelaide.
Gautam Gambhir's PA also was present in the breakfast areas which were there only for players. This all hasn't gone well with BCCI, who recently issued strict guidelines, and one of the SOPs mentioned that players won't be allowed to have their personal assistant along with them.

Now it has been revealed that it was Gautam Gambhir, who was travelling with the personal assistant. But now, as per the reports in Crickblogger, it is learned that the BCCI has banned India's head coach's PA from staying in the same hotel as the Indian team.
A source close to BCCI confirmed the same and stated: "In response, the BCCI has barred Gambhir's PA from staying in the same hotel as the Indian team, accessing VIP boxes in stadiums, and using the team bus. He can't travel with the team,"
"Why was his PA sitting in the car specified for national selectors? They can't even discuss things in private with an unknown third person in the car. Why was he allotted space in the BCCI's hospitality box inAdelaide? How did he have breakfast in the cordoned-off area of a five-star facility that is just earmarked for the team members?"
Gautam Gambhir has come under massive scanner ever since he was appointed as the head coach of the team. The performances of the team have been well below par. It remains to be seen what will be his future as the head coach of the team.
