India's 3-0 Zimbabwe T20I Win Under VVS Laxman Sparks Coaching DebatePreviousNext

India secured a 3-0 T20I series win over Zimbabwe under interim coach VVS Laxman and captain Shreyas Iyer, marking a positive turnaround after recent losses in the UK. Laxman, deputising for rested head coach Gautam Gambhir, received praise from fans who called for him to become the full-time coach. The series featured a relatively inexperienced squad and was seen as a confidence boost, with Laxman commending Iyer's leadership and team resilience.
