The official Iceland Cricket social media account once again drew attention after taking a playful dig at India’s head coach, Gautam Gambhir, following India’s T20I series defeat to Ireland.
Known for its witty and sarcastic posts, Iceland Cricket reacted to India’s disappointing performance by sharing a humorous message on X.
“We can confirm that we don’t wish to add Gautam Gambhir to our coaching staff. He clearly has talent, though. To take those Indian players and deliver those results in Ireland takes truly remarkable gifts,” Iceland Cricket posted.
