I still feel India could have played Deepak Hooda: Gambhir on 1st T20I
Ex-India opener Gautam Gambhir said he still feels India could have played all-rounder Deepak Hooda in the first T20I against South Africa, which they lost by seven wickets. Gambhir termed Hooda's form and him being a youngster as the reason behind his statement. Hooda scored 451 runs recently in IPL 2022 for LSG and had a strike rate of 136.66.
