Ind V SA: Gavaskar & Ashwin Back Gambhir, Who To Blame For Loss? | First Sports With Rupha Ramani

India’s whitewash against South Africa at home has triggered one of the biggest postmortems in recent cricket history, and this time, it isn’t just about missed chances on the field. A visible divide has emerged over where the blame truly lies. Fans, some experts are pointing fingers at head coach Gautam Gambhir, while legends like Sunil Gavaskar and R. Ashwin insist the fault lies squarely with the players. So, who is responsible for India’s stunning collapse at home? Rupha Ramani breaks down every layer of the crisis. This deep dive uncovers where India’s foundations cracked, why execution failed, and what must change if Indian cricket wants to rise again.

Also on the show, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and US President Donald Trump are set to meet at the FIFA 2026 World Cup draw. A massive breakthrough moment during the tense situations between Canada and the US. Will the meeting mend ties between the two nations, or will it add fuel to the already burning fire? And India has been granted the hosting rights for the 2030 Commonwealth Games. The country will host the event for the first time since the 2010 Games. But amid the celebrations, the death of two teenage basketball players has raised severe concerns. Is India really ready for the multi-lateral sporting events?
