Amidst India's Test cricket struggles, former England cricketer Monty Panesar suggested that head coach Gautam Gambhir return to domestic cricket. Panesar believes Gambhir, successful in white-ball formats, could benefit from coaching in the Ranji Trophy to develop red-ball team-building skills. India has won seven out of 19 Tests under Gambhir's tenure, experiencing whitewashes in home series against New Zealand and South Africa, and losing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
