From the shock defeat to New Zealand to the recent loss against South Africa in Kolkata , the “ Fortress India ” narrative suddenly feels less secure. We break down what these setbacks mean for the team’s identity, the management under Gautam Gambhir , and the expectations placed on young stars like Shubman Gill . Was this just a rare dip, or is India entering a new phase where their home dominance can truly be challenged? Join us as we analyze tactical missteps, selection calls, leadership dynamics, and the pressure of carrying a legacy built over a decade of relentless success. - You can buy my new book ' The Art of Batting ' here: India : https://amzn.in/d/8nt6RU1 UK : https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1399416545 - To support the podcast please go to our Patreon page. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.
