Kapil Dev Supports Anshul Kamboj After Disappointing Debut in Fourth Test Against England
Kapil Dev has come to the defense of Anshul Kamboj following his below-par bowling performance in the fourth Test against England. Despite high expectations after an impressive India A tour of England, Kamboj's debut saw him concede 89 runs from just 18 overs, taking only one wicket. While some critics questioned his selection, the legendary former India captain Kapil Dev stepped in to offer his support. He emphasized that expecting a debutant to take 10 wickets is unrealistic and expressed confidence that Kamboj would bounce back stronger in future matches.

Kamboj was called up to the Indian squad as a replacement for Arshdeep Singh and Akash Deep, who were both ruled out due to injuries. Kapil Dev highlighted the challenges faced by debutants, noting that everyone feels nervous in their first match. He stressed that the true measure of a player's potential lies in their ability to recover and improve, which he believes Kamboj possesses.
Kapil Dev also extended his support to Shubman Gill, whose captaincy decisions have faced scrutiny. The legendary all-rounder urged patience, stating that Gill will learn from his mistakes and grow over time. He emphasized that making errors is part of the learning process and that the key is to learn from them.
