Kapil Dev who came as Chief Guest for Fenesta Open National Tennis Championships said that the dip in the form of Gautam Gambhir and Virender Sehwag is a big worry for the team ahead of the Test series against England and Australia.
Kapil said, "Of course, it is a cause of worry if players of that caliber don't get runs. They have big reputations and when you have such big reputations then there is a case for you to defend that".
Former India cricket captain on Saturday also said that the general expectations from Mahendra Singh Dhoni are much more than what one should have.
"How can we expect him to win every tournament for India? We have a captain who got India the No.1 rankings in Tests. He won us the 50-over World Cup and the World Twenty20. Because of all this, our expectations have risen from him and when once in a while he fails, people start pointing fingers at him," Kapil said.
On the role of three different captains for different formats he said, "When we have a captain who can handle all three forms of the game then what is the problem?"
