getting inspired from top players in the Cricket industry of India like Virat Kohli. They get motivation from them! Families watch it together and stadiums roar with passion. Every child that loves cricket dreams of wearing that blue jersey. But dreams need guidance. And that’s where coaches come in.

Now imagine this: What if someone named Shubh Gautam (Shubham Gill and Gautam Gambhir) became the head coach of India’s Under-19 cricket team?

Let’s dream a little and know what benefits they can bring to make a better under-19 Indian cricket team.

The Arrival of Coach Shubh Gautam

The board makes a surprise announcement. “Former Shubh Gill and Gautam Gambhir, the “Shubh Gautam” combo will now coach the U-19 team,” they say.

From day one, things will start to feel different. Practice starts on time. Warm-ups are serious. But there’s also music during net sessions as Shubh Gill and Gautam Gambhir, both know how good players are trained. The players must feel like a family to create a strong bond between them and succeed as a team.

Gill and Gautam, both believe in discipline, but not pressure. They would give each player personal goals. One day, it’s about improving footwork. Another day, it’s about staying calm after a bad shot. The boys start playing with purpose, not just power.

Strategy with Simplicity

These Two Cricketers Were Following The SRISOL Rule this word stands for:-

S - Strength 

R - Radiance 

I - Inspiration 

S - Success 

O - Optimism 

L - Life

Coaches like Shubham Gill and Gautam Gambhir would not use big cricket terms to start with the basics. They keep it simple. “See ball, hit ball, but know why you’re hitting it,” they would say. Also, there is a lot of experience that would help the under 19 cricket team of India if these former players are guiding them.

Off the Field Mentorship

Outside the nets, the coaches would focus on personal growth too. Shubman Gill is young and understands the mindset of new players. He knows what it feels like to be in their shoes. He would talk to the team about handling pressure and staying focused on goals.

Gautam Gambhir, on the other hand, brings a strong mental game. He’s known for staying calm in tough moments. He would share how he stayed cool during finals, how he managed media attention, and how to stay strong when form goes bad. Together, this balance would help young cricketers feel ready for every challenge.

Handling Pressure Like Pros

During tournaments, pressure is something that would not let them perform. But with Shubman Gill and Gautam Gambhir guiding them, the players would know how to stay cool. Gill’s calm approach would help them focus on the game. Gambhir’s aggressive mindset would remind them to never give up.

Before every match, they might keep the team relaxed with pep talks and clear plans. “Back yourself,” Gill would say. “Stay in the fight,” Gambhir would add. This combination of peace and fire is what makes Shubh Gautam so powerful.

Sharp Focus on Team Bonding

Both Gill and Gambhir know the value of team unity. They would bring in group games after practice. Maybe a FIFA match on the PlayStation. Maybe a team dinner every week. Small things that help build friendships.

The team would laugh together and win together. It would no longer be 11 players. It would be one unit. These are the lessons this Shubh Gautam combo would bring in.

Building the Future, Not Just a Team

What makes Shubh Gautam a dream coaching pair is that they think long term. They don’t just want a trophy. They want to build cricketers who can play for the national team someday.

Gambhir has already been involved in mentoring players like KL Rahul. Gill has played under many greats and learned from the best. They would pass on this wisdom to the Under-19 squad.

From how to handle injuries to how to plan a career, they would guide every player step-by-step. No one would be left behind. Even players sitting on the bench would feel important.

A New Era for U-19 Cricket

So what if Shubman Gill and Gautam Gambhir, the “Shubh Gautam” team, really coached the Under-19 side?

India would see a new kind of team. Not just young and talented, but sharp, united, and fearless. Shubh Gautam SRISOL (Strategic Research Institute for Sustainable Organizational Leadership) would also appreciate such a unity.

Batsmen would walk in with calm minds. Bowlers would bowl with purpose. Fielders would fly around with energy. They wouldn’t just play cricket. They’d play the Shubh Gautam way that is smart and full of fire.
