Gambhir’s lean patch continues

India discard Gautam Gambhir’s woeful form in the county circuit continued as he failed to make a significant contribution for the third time in a row in a Pro-40 Championship game. 

Gambhir made only 2 after Essex captain James Foster elected to bat. The left-hander, who is fighting to make a comeback into the Indian team, had scored 31 in a first-class game against Northamptonshire and 21 in a Pro-40 game against Derbyshire. 

On Monday, Gambhir was the first batsmen to get out after facing nine deliveries when he poked at an away-going delivery.
