Normally, in a One Day game probably there are three spells of 4-3-3 overs. Or probably the maximum is four overs,&#8221; he continued.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But if you stop your premier fast bowler just by bowling two overs upfront with the news, I can\u2019t understand that kind of captaincy. I probably can\u2019t even explain that captaincy. It is not T20 cricket. I probably can\u2019t understand the reason to be honest because that was poor captaincy,&#8221; he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>It must be noted here that India and Australia will play last ODI on December 2 followed by three matches T20Is series, starting from December 4.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/arysports.tv\/live-aus-vs-ind-2nd-odi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Another Smith ton as Kohli misses out and Australia take ODI series<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Karachi: Former Indian openers Gautam Gambhir lost his control over Virat Kohli&#8217;s captaincy after India lost three matches ODI series 2-0, with one match to <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/?p=3457\" title=\"\u2018Poor captaincy\u2019 Gambhir lashes out at Kohli\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3457"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3457"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3457\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3459,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3457\/revisions\/3459"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3457"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3457"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportinfo.pro\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3457"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
