Gavaskar was not happy with the India performed in WTC 2023 final.
After blasting at the debacle of the batting order, Gavaskar also questioned the team's approach and stated that the entire unit has to work on all the factors that went wrong for India during the match.
“I have been in the teams where we have been knocked out at 42 and we had been miserable in the change rooms. We were also criticized heavily. So, I think you cannot say that the current lot is not beyond criticism. They have to be very analytical about what happened, how they get out, why didn't they bowl well, why didn't they catch, was the selection of the Playing XI was the right thing, so all these factors have to come in," said Gavaskar on Star Sports.
Gavaskar continued by saying that if Team India keeps making the same mistakes in summit matches against powerful opponents like Australia, winning bilateral series against the likes of the West Indies will be of no value.
"You cannot brush this under the carpet like 'yeah we have got two matches against West Indies'. West Indies are not the best team in the world. You just go and hammer them 2-0, 3-0, whatever the matches are. This doesn't mean anything because when you come across and if you go to the finals and if you are playing Australia again, making the same mistakes, then how would you win the trophy?" he added.
