Iceland Cricket has once again taken a swipe at India head coach Gautam Gambhir following India's shocking 0-2 T20I series defeat against Ireland.Reacting to India's loss, Iceland Cricket posted a sarcastic message on X, mocking Gambhir's coaching record."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," the post read.This is not the first time Iceland Cricket has targeted Gambhir. Last year, after India suffered a 2-0 Test series defeat against South Africa, the cricket board had made a similar remark.— icelandcricket (@icelandcricket) "To all our fans, no, Gautam Gambhir will not be invited to be our new national team coach. That position is already filled and we won 75% of our matches in 2025," Iceland Cricket had posted at the time.Meanwhile, Ireland scripted history by defeating India by one run in the second T20I on Sunday to complete a landmark 2-0 series sweep. It marked Ireland's first-ever bilateral series victory over India in any format.— icelandcricket (@icelandcricket) Having won the opening match by 34 runs, Ireland successfully defended 154/8 in the second game. Chasing 155, India finished at 153/9 despite a dramatic last-ball six from Prince Yadav.Vice-captain Tilak Varma was India's top scorer with 55 off 46 balls, while Jai Moondra and Matt Hollard claimed three wickets each for the hosts.The defeat adds to a string of disappointing results for India under Gambhir's tenure. Since taking charge in July 2024, India have endured a 0-3 home Test series whitewash against New Zealand in 2024 and their first ODI series defeat to New Zealand in early 2026.Gambhir succeeded Rahul Dravid as India's head coach in July 2024. His three-year contract runs until the 2027 ODI World Cup.
