Gavaskar Calls for ‘Post-Mortem’ After India’s 2-0 Whitewash vs South Africa

Sunil Gavaskar has demanded a detailed “post-mortem” of India Test cricket after back-to-back home series whitewashes in 12 months.

South Africa hammered India by 408 runs in the 2nd Test to claim the series 2-0. India have now lost 5 of their last 7 home Tests, including New Zealand’s 3-0 sweep. India’s batting struggled heavily, with 201 their highest first-innings total of the series. South Africa piled up a massive 549 target in the 2nd Test; India were bowled out for 140 while chasing.

Spin spearhead Simon Harmer led an inspired attack. Former players and commentators warned India’s home aura is fading fast.
