Gautam Gambhir's coaching methods may have faced severe criticism in India, but Afghanistan's wicketkeeper-batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz feels that he is the "best coach".

Under the coaching of Gambhir, Team India recently suffered a 0-2 series defeat against South Africa at home. The loss came a year after suffering a series defeat against New Zealand at home. With this, India's dominance at home has come to an end, having lost five of its seven Test matches.
