Former Australia captain Tim Paine called India head coach Gautam Gambhir a "really prickly" character after he reacted to Ricky Ponting's remark on Virat Kohli's form. "[He's] really competitive, and...not to say that's not a good thing...but my concern is that it's not a great fit for...Indian cricket team," he added. Gambhir had said Ponting should talk about Australian cricket.
