Don’t be afraid of defeat, just learn to fight. Amidst the threat of whitewashing, Ashwin gave the Manchester Guru Mantra to the team:

News India Live, Digital Desk: The Indian cricket team is currently going through its most difficult phase. The situation in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT 2025) has become such that even the fans are now thinking of switching off the TV. After continuous defeats and poor performance in Perth, now there is no fear of losing, but Historic Whitewash Is of.

Will Australia thrash us 5-0 or 4-0? This question is troubling every Indian fan. At such a critical moment, the team’s ‘professor’ and most experienced player Ravichandran Ashwin Have stood as a shield in the dressing room.

Ashwin told the team not in a hushed voice, but with a sting. “Spirit of Manchester” Have reminded. Let us know what Ashwin said that even the dejected team came to life.

What is Ashwin’s “Whatever May Happen” mantra?

When everyone is saying that “India is gone”, then Ashwin has said a very deep thing. He says, “Whatever has to happen will happen, but the question is how are we fighting?”

Ashwin has explained to his teammates to stop thinking about the result. “We will lose, we will lose 0-5…” This very thought will overwhelm us. Instead, we should Mindset have to bring back what we Manchester (England Tour) Was shown in.

What was that “Manchester thing”?

You will remember that tour of England (2021) when the Indian team was struggling with Corona and injuries. No one was expecting us to win. But the team did not give up. Players like Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Ashwin himself showed spirit and pushed England on the backfoot in their own home.

Ashwin’s indication is clear that the circumstances were against us then, they are against us even today. If you could fight then, why not today?

“Stop making excuses”

In cricket, pitch, weather or toss are often cited as the reasons for defeat. But Ashwin believes that now the time for all these things has passed.

• Ashwin’s message: “We should forget what the score of the series is. Go into the next Test assuming it is 0-0. Don’t show Australia that we are scared.”
• In Manchester, Team India had shown that “We will fall, but we will get up again.” We will have to show the same attitude in Adelaide and Gabba also.

fight to save reputation

If Team India loses this series, it will not just be a series defeat, but the stain of this “clean sweep” will not be washed off for years. This warning of Ashwin is also for those young players who are seeing this dreadful form of Australia for the first time.
