Ajinkya Rahane says India head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Shubman Gill should back an underfire India player and give him more time. Rahane’s comments urge the team management and leadership to support the player through a difficult phase rather than immediately changing course.

The two reports from NDTV present the same core message: Rahane calls for patience and continuity, arguing that the player will eventually deliver if he is given a longer run in the side. The coverage frames the remarks as coming from a former India batter offering guidance to current leadership, with the emphasis on trust and performance coming through over time. Both outlets attribute the “he will deliver” sentiment to Rahane’s appeal for longer support from Gambhir and Gill.
